Stay Slim with Summer Smoothies

SHAPE magazine has shared some quick and easy smoothie recipes that will keep us healthy, happy, and refreshed this summer. The greatest part- they take minutes to make! We chose a few that looked delicious to us.




CHOCOLATE ALMOND MOCHA SHAKE
"Find a chocolate almond milk made with dark chocolate (like from Silk) for an extra health boost from the antioxidants."

PUMPKIN PIE SMOOTHIE
"This smoothie is the prefect fix for when you're craving pumpkin pie. The flax and walnuts provide a healthy dose of essential fats while the spices add a variety of antioxidants and flavor."

POMEGRANATE AND BLUEBERRY CREAM SMOOTHIE
"The powerful dose of antioxidants in pure pomegranate juice makes it taste too bitter for some, but creamy cottage cheese and coconut milk mellow out the intense flavor in this smoothie recipe"

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE MINT SMOOTHIE
"This blend includes cacao nibs, which are partially gowned cacoa beans high in fiber, magnesium, and iron."
