Tips for Great Breakfast Smoothies
The collection of breakfast smoothie recipes combines fruits, veggies and all of the colors of the rainbow!
- All you need is fresh or frozen fruit or ice cubes, liquid and a blender.
- If you have fruit that is about to go bad, chop and freeze for smoothies.
- Keeping a banana or two in the freezer ensures they’re extra thick and frothy.
Tools You’ll Need
You don’t need much to make smoothies. A great blender is really the only requirement.
- If you make lots of breakfast smoothies, invest in a great blender. We love both Blendtec and Vitamix.
- Ninja Foodi has the best value and price with 5 star reviews across the board.
- I’ve made countless great smoothies in a Magic Bullet as well. (Tip, as it’s blending, gently shake the bullet to help it mix better).
