Smoothies for Everyone – 32 Smoothie Recipes From Your Favorite Food Bloggers

(Formerly 10 Juices and Smoothies to Boost Your Energy)

There are times when you just need to boost your energy. You’re worn out, tired, jet lagged or maybe like too many of us, you just didn’t get enough sleep last night. For whatever reason, you need a jolt to the system, but you’d prefer that it didn’t come from a can or a shot-glass sized bottle. You’re in luck. I asked my fellow food bloggers for a list of their favorite healthy smoothie recipes, and they delivered.

In spades.

I expected perhaps 10 smoothie recipes, but I ended up with more than I could have hoped for. To  have people that are, in many cases, far more talented than I am dishing up their recipes sort of made it feel like my birthday. On Birthdays, you throw parties. So Welcome to the smoothie party!

Some of these will indeed boost your energy, perhaps increase your health or clear your mind. Others will energize your spirit. They are all healthy, delicious choices for a meal on the run. Just because I like things organized, i’ll start with the super food and green smoothies, and work my way down to chocolate decadence. (Yes. I said chocolate. And yes, they’re healthy.)

Vegetable Smoothies.

Hints of Hawaii sweeten this healthy green smoothie that goes down easy for breakfast. The ingredients couldn’t be healthier or more natural. Mango, coconut water and pineapple juice will have you dreaming of the islands. And it’s vegan, gluten free and dairy free, for those with dietary restrictions.  Be sure to add a Tropical Green Smoothie to your breakfast choices.

Since we’re already in the tropics, we’ll go for another variation on the Tropical Green Smoothie. This time with mango instead of the coconut.
