If you are looking to start off your day with a burst of energy, then here is a list of fifteen refreshing fruit smoothies recipes you will definitely want to try out. And the great thing about every single one of these smoothies is that they all contain healthy ingredients. When you are making a fruit smoothie, there is no need to add sugar or other processed foods since most fruit contains more than enough of their own natural sugars. While concocting these delicious smoothies, it should be noted that while they’re loaded with nutrients, they can be calorically dense as well. It’s tempting to chug a ton of these smoothies when you first start out, but keep in mind that a little goes a long way. I highly recommend making a batch, having a glass and then freezing the rest. Smoothies freeze (and thaw) very well and are just as scrumptious frozen. Yum! 🙂 And if you’re looking for more healthy smoothie recipes, be sure and check out this highly rated book on Amazon, The Healthy Smoothie Bible, which is loaded with tons of recipes and beautiful illustrations.
