Simple Smoothies


Smoothies can be made with basically anything that you prefer. I try to keep a variety of frozen fruits and veggies on hand so that I can throw together just about any type of smoothie that I'm in the mood for. You can also combine a bunch of fresh fruits and veggies that are leftover in your pantry and are on their way to spoiling. Although smoothies are great, I personally believe that they shouldn't be a daily supplement to any meal as they are high in sugar, and although they have a variety of nutrients they are usually lacking calories and protein, something that is necessary in every diet. 

My Fave Smoothie:
- Banana
- 1/4 c Pineapple (froz.)
- 1/4 c Blueberries (froz.) 
- 1/4 c Kale (froz.)
- A few carrot sticks
- 1 Tbsp flax seed
- 1/2 c Each of hemp milk and pomegranate juice
