dairy and sugar free smoothies
 
My daily breakfast is a green smoothie — but lately I’ve been getting a little tired of having the same thing over and over again. Sometimes I have one of Austin’s protien bars and replace my lunch with a smoothie and I’ve begun to experiment with different flavors for summer. Read on for a few of my favorites – they are all sugar and dairy free!

4 Dairy + Sugar Free Summer Smoothies

A note about my smoothie recipes:  None of these recipes are exact – and I don’t think you should really ever be measuring your ingredients precisely for smoothies. Add more of what you like, less of what you don’t and have fun experimenting!
