If you aren’t adding vegetables to your smoothie, I’m here to tell you GO FOR IT! Try these easy fruit and vegetable smoothies and you’ll thank me later. Don’t be afraid to experiment too – it’s all about finding what works best for you and your preferences. I will say that the beet flavor is STRONG which is why I add honey – but at the same time I like the taste of beets. But I really don’t think you can go wrong with spinach in any type of smoothie! Check out the notes below on how to get THE best consistency smoothie! #findyourbalance

Notes
I challenge you to have a smoothie that is made with fresh fruit/veg and ice, and compare it to a smoothie made with frozen fruit/veg NO ice – and tell me you don’t like the frozen version better. I will never make my smoothies any other way! The consistency is perfection.
