Does your breakfast routine need a spring cleaning? Try swapping your milk and cereal for spring fruits and veggies! A smoothie is a great way to start your day. They are simple to make and easy to take with you on the road. I love experimenting with in-season fruit, greens, and healthy fats like nut butters and seeds.

Here are a few of my favorite smoothies for inspiration:
