Apple Carrot and Peach Smoothie

Let the health revolution continue! Well, that came out a bit too heroic, but in essence, that is how I feel right now. So much so that I’m even thinking of starting a new section on the blog. Anyway, I will share that later, this is Apple Carrot and Peach Smoothie is one of the delicious and easiest smoothies I have ever made.

But in the meantime, smoothies! Why smoothies? Some time ago, I heard a saying that got stuck in my mind. It went something like this: “eat your liquids and drink your solids”.  I don’t quite understand the first part of this quote ( maybe someone can shed some light on it), but with the second part, I simply fell in love! Thus, smoothies.

I think everyone should drink a smoothie in the morning. It’s easy and fast to make, it is a vitamin bomb, and you can take it with you in a jar or in a travel mug. I don’t think you can find an excuse not to grab one in the morning. You can do it however you want, use whatever fruit/veggie you like, you can make them with fresh or frozen fruits, you can add milk, coconut milk, yogurt, water.

The point is there are so many possibilities that I think it is impossible not to find one that suits your taste.
