11 Hearty and Healthy Smoothies
Nov 04, 2013
Who says smoothies are just for spring and summer? The health nuts in us say smoothies are the bee’s knees all year around. As we move into the full-fledged holiday season, we could all use a healthy breakfast option a few days a week. Here are 11 such recipes we’re bookmarking this month.
Apple Pie Smoothie
As American as an apple pie smoothie? If the trend towards health-conscious eating continues to grow as it has been, we just might need to amend that expression ;) (via My San Francisco Kitchen)
Pumpkin Smoothie with Pumpkin Granola
Ready to double up on your pumpkin love? We love the idea of swirling a little bit of Greek yogurt into this mix. (via Eat Me Blog)

We have yet to experiment with chia seeds here at Brit HQ, but this recipe definitely has us feeling chia-curious. (via Henry Happened)

Created as an anti-inflammatory, this is a great midday smoothie if you can’t stop to eat a full meal. (Pickles N’ Honey)
