mmmm... an ice cold blueberry smoothie

 
 

I don't know about you but I'm all over some smoothies lately. They're cold, easy, and can be a really great vehicle for loads of nutrition. 

I made this smoothie the other day because it was noon and I knew I was going to be having a really early dinner starting at 3pm. Not only was the dinner early, but it was also going to be crispy tacos and I wasn't planning on holding back. I had worked out earlier that day and was running errands all morning. Once I got home, I knew I needed something that was going to satisfy me but also not ruin my early meal. 

 
 

A smoothie is perfect for this situation and this one is a nutritious powerhouse!
