A quick and healthy creamy blueberry smoothie, perfect for hot summer afternoons!
Annnnnnd we’re back. Whew. After a long, much needed break this weekend, we’re back to smoothies, tacos, and cupcakes. Oh man, shouldn’t have said that. Where’s a chocolate cupcake when you need one??
One of my very top-fav things about summertime is the berries. Strawberries, blackberries, and those beautiful blueberries. And my two preferred ways to eat them are piled high atop a mountain of greek yogurt, or in a cool and creamy smoothie.
On a hot summer day there’s really nothing that satisfies and cools you off quite like a smoothie. In this case, it’s a blueberry smoothie. Nice n’ creamy and that secret ingredient – avocados! Avocados are healthy right?! And that makes me personally feel a bit better when I have a smoothie for breakfast.
