If you stop by here often, you know how much I love making smoothies in my Vitamix! I often mix up my own recipes, and play with ones I find online. Well, its been a crazy and hectic couple weeks and time has been limited which has led me to me new favorite app! The Blender Girl Smoothie App! It's genius for smoothie lovers! You can either look through all her recipes (currently her favorite 70, and she's rolling out 100 more..1 each week), or you can use the simple drop down questions to help narrow down your list based on what you're in the mood for, dietary restrictions, and what you're looking to achieve etc.. I also love that you can mark your favorites and come back to them quickly. My new favorite and go-to energy boost right now is her Cake Batter smoothie. She nailed the combination of flavors, and it's packed with yummy, healthy, and filling ingredients that stay with me as I go through my day!
