Hot summer days are the perfect time to relax with a healthy and refreshing smoothie. These two recipes are the perfect way for you to get a nutritious start to your day.  For a sweet fruity smoothie start by gathering these ingredients:

 

- 1 cup of Water  

- Handful of Ice 

- 2 Tablespoons of Chia Seeds

- ½ cup Strawberries 

- ½ of a Banana 

- ½ cup Fresh Blueberries  

- ¼ cup Pineapple  

- 1 Scoop of Strawberry Swirl NutraFit

 

Start by adding water or your choice of milk into your blender. Next, add in your fresh or frozen fruit. For those looking to add extra protein to their diet add a scoop of strawberry swirl Nutrafit protein powder. Not only is it delicious but one scoop is 40 grams of protein. If whey protein is not your thing piping rock also carries pea protein powder, soy protein, and plant protein. All of these add-ins can help enhance the flavor and benefits of your smoothie.  

 

If you are looking to add more greens to your routine, try this smoothie!

 

- 1 cup of Water/Juice   

- Handful of Ice 

- 1 cup of Spinach

- ½ cup of Mango

- ½ of an Apple

-  ½ of a Banana

- 1 cup Chopped Celery

- Daily Super Greens Powder

 

Start by adding your choice of liquid into the blender. For this recipe almond milk, water, or apple juice work best. Next add in your greens and fruit. For even more greens try adding in a scoop of piping rock’s super green powder. Although your smoothie may be bright green, the sweetness of the fruit masks the taste of the greens. For a little extra sweetness, you can also blend in a few drops of zero calorie Stevia.
