Orange Smoothie

This creamy delicious smoothie uses both fruit and veggies to create a nourishing and filling post-workout re-fuel!
This smoothie is a little higher in carbs than most of my recipes, so I do recommend you enjoy it in combination with a higher intensity sweat session, and/or with lower carb meals for the remainder of the day. 

Smoothies can be a fun way to get in a serving or two of fruits and vegetables! In general, most smoothies are on the higher side when it comes to carbs, so it's important to not be fooled into thinking they are a suitable choice for everyday. I also recommend smoothies always contain a  smart source of protein and fat to help support balanced blood sugar  and energy levels.

Here's what you'll need for this beautiful orange smoothie!
