Start your day right!

Many of us fall short on getting the USDA's recommended 13 servings of fruits and vegetables each day.  Smoothies are a great way to get tons of great nutrition from fruits and veggies.  Often, one smoothie can contain up to 5 of your 13 daily servings of fruits and veggie.!  The best part about smoothies is that you don't have to cook!  

Don't get me wrong, I love to cook!  Food is a side passion of mine. It is often my creative outlet.  However, these times of COVID-19 lock down have required me to spend a lot more time cooking than usual.  At first it was fun.  Now, my creativity is diminishing and I find myself looking more and more at my Vitamix blender for quick meal inspiration.  In my opinion, smoothies make a great meal replacement for Breakfast or Lunch.

When we started carrying Truvani Protein Powder at the gym, I gave everyone a simple smoothie recipe that is our "go to" recipe at home.  Here are two more recipes to add to your smoothie arsenal.  Make sure to use a good quality plant based protein powder like Truvani.

Here they are!
