Smoothies Magnificent Seven

Smoothies Magnificent Se7en

I personally think that Smoothies make a great breakfast; they can be really healthy (depending on the ingredients) and super quick to make if you are in a rush in the mornings.

There are so many combinations you can try and as always experimentation is key… Let yourself go, live a little!
