Spring is the season when we start really cranking out healthy smoothies! Check out our most popular protein-rich, superfood smoothies below. Smoothies are a great way to boost energy in the morning (better than coffee – yes I said it!). These healthy smoothie recipes are also a wonderful midday pick-me-up or after school snack.

March 20th is the first day of Spring and we’re celebrating by doing an amazing giveaway sponsored by Blendtec. We appreciate you so much – thank you for following along, connecting with us on Facebook and Instagram, pinning our recipes, and sharing them with the people you love. It just makes my day when I hear you’ve tried and loved one of our recipes. We are so excited that one of you will win an amazing Blendtec blender set ($729.90 retail value)!

We stopped going to the smoothie shops once we got our Blendtec because the way we make smoothies at home is such a treat! Plus, we don’t add junk like ice cream (well sometimes), extra sugar and super sweet juices like they do in smoothie shops. Our healthy smoothie recipes are often packed with protein and are nutrient rich with our own “boosts” of flax, chia seeds, greens, etc). It’s a good feeling to serve healthy homemade smoothies to your family.

    I think my Osterizer Galaxie blender is on its last legs, really. 🙂 Received it as a wedding gift in June, 1970. It has made a “million” smoothies, margaritas, banana bread batter, chopped tomatoes, made juice, pureed soup & baby food, chopped nuts, made nut butter. It’s probably ready for retirement because it has worked hard for this honey. 🙂 I really enjoy ALL your recipes Natasha. Since I am half Austrian/half Russian, so many of these dishes have been on my kitchen table but I always enjoy seeing/trying someone’s else’s version too. Thank you for sharing them with us!

      Hi Dana, sometimes the giveaway sponsors request specifically that we do continental US only. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you have someone that could receive it for you (be able to provide a continental US address), that would be the only way to make it work with this one.

    Smoothies are so healthy and good for us. I was drinking a smoothie everyday for a while and felt so much better! One of my favorites is Cherries and Strawberries. I need to start adding them to my daily meal plan again. During winter months I kinda go for your delicious desserts. I can’t help myself they are so Scrumptious!
