    I drink a smoothie every day, and have for over a decade! So I decided to create a post with all my favorite smoothie recipes in one place.

    I love making healthy smoothie recipes to sneak some fruits, veggies and protein into our daily lives in a way my kids absolutely love.

    Fruit Smoothie Recipes

    You can add greens to any of these fruit smoothie recipes, just be aware they will change the color. Or you can just enjoy them without greens. I like making these fruit smoothies for a delicious afternoon snack or as a healthy way to cool down in the summer months.

    • Strawberry Banana Smoothie - my all-time favorite fruit smoothie.
    • Blueberry Smoothie - use fresh or frozen blueberries.
    • Mango smoothie - one sip will transport you to some beach, somewhere.
    • Pineapple Smoothie - like a piña colada but healthier.
    • Mixed Berry Smoothie - full of rich antioxidants from the berries.
    • Banana Smoothie - a great way to use up a plethora of frozen bananas.
    • Watermelon Smoothie - a summer favorite!
    • Orange Smoothie - like a healthy creamsicle.
    • Tropical smoothie - another one that will give you major beach vacation vibes.
    • Peach smoothie - perfect way to use the abundance of fresh summer peaches.

      I love having smoothies a lot. I enjoy smoothies rather then other drinks because smoothies taste awesome and also it includes fruits which are helpful for us in maintaining our health and immunity.
      I have not tried the Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie and the recipe that you have shared makes me more eager to taste it as soon as possible.
      Thank you for sharing this article with us along with the link to the specific recipes for every smoothie. Keep sharing more such articles with us in the future also.
