Now that it’s getting hot outside, you may be tempted to head out for ice cream. Instead, give a delicious homemade smoothie a try. Packed full of antioxidants, fiber, and protein, but much lower in added sugar and calories; it’s a great way to fill up while you slim down for bathing suit season.
Here’s a great recipe created by my fantastic intern Kelly Sloan
