Quick Smoothies You Can Make at Home

If you are a regular customer of ours, you probably know that we have shut down for the season. We pop back open in the spring and are open all the way until late fall.

But if you want to make your own smoothies in the meantime, we have put together this short list of smoothies that are easy and fast to make. After all, convenience is the name of the game when it comes to a treat as complex, vitamin rich and satisfying as an all-natural healthy smoothie.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie

• 1 frozen banana
• 1 cup unsweetened milk (nut, soy, regular)
• 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter
• 1–3 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• Honey or maple syrup, sweeten to taste

Pina Colada Smoothie

• 2 frozen bananas
• 1 cup pineapple chunks (canned or fresh)
• 1 cup coconut milk (from the can)
• Honey or maple syrup, sweeten to taste

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

• 1 frozen banana
• 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
• 1 cup unsweetened milk (nut, soy, regular)
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• Honey or maple syrup, sweeten to taste

We hope you have found at least one of these interesting. Getting into the habit of blending a smoothie every day is a easy way to get your vitamins and get a meal out of the way at the same time.

As many as 1/3 of all smoothie drinkers use smoothies as a meal replacement. And why not? Great smoothies can have fiber, healthy fats and the entire range of vitamins.
