Making a smoothie is one of the finest ways to get nutrition into your body. You dump ingredients into a blender, pulse and you have nourishment waiting to be drunk. Now let me show you three of such nourishing combos so you can dump, drink, and blend forever and ever.

Recipe Notes
If the smoothie is too thick, add more liquid (milk, juice or water). If it is too thin, add more fruit or ice.
Smoothies can keep for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. However, note that some might separate or the texture might change after being kept.
