Smooth Fuel: Smoothie recipes for all!
Happy Wednesday, Athlete!
You’re a busy person. You work hard and workout harder. The last thing you need to do is waste precious time and energy chewing your food. Let your blender do that for you!
I’ve got 5 awesome smoothie recipes to share with you! Smoothies are my favorite breakfast, pre-, and post-workout meal. I like 'em all the time!
And there are so many ways to be creative or get fancy with them! So if you are a smoothie lover, like myself, OR if you
haven’t yet tried a smoothie that you liked, then why not try these?! I’m sure there will be one for YOU on this list!
Each of these recipes are simple. Gather the listed ingredients. Stick em in the blender. Water down as needed to get the right consistency.
Blend. Drink. Enjoy.
