Our Favorite Food Bloggers Share Their Best Summer Smoothies

Between the heat and humidity, swapping out a meal or two with a smoothie isn’t the worst idea. With the right balance of protein, carbs, and healthy fats, a smoothie is totally meal-worthy.

Plus, with summer produce at its peak, there’s no better time to whip out your blender and load it full of fruits and veggies. (Also: a smoothie meal means you don’t need to cook. Bonus!)

We asked some of our favorite food bloggers to share their best summer smoothies. Scroll down for some amazing sippable snacks and meals.

The greener the better I always say. There is nothing better than a well balanced green smoothie.

These look too good to eat. I’m currently living in Seoul and fruit is just so expensive! It makes smoothies such an indulgence.

I love putting spinach into all of my smoothies. Unless you put a lot, you can’t even taste it! It’s such an easy way to add extra vitamins and minerals into your diet. :)
