Now that the New Year is here, are you ready to switch gears and detox with some light, healthy smoothies? Smoothies are a terrific way to incorporate lots of nutritious ingredients into your diet. Here are 10 of my favorite healthy smoothie and smoothie bowl recipes to kick off the New Year!
While I don't usually make specific resolutions, I do think that the start of the New Year is a great time to kick off some healthy habits! For me, this means being more active, working out, getting enough sleep, and cooking lots of nutritious, balanced meals at home with plenty of fruits and vegetables.
But at times it may seem hard to get enough servings in. In a recent post, I shared my harvest rice bowls. Grain bowls are a great way to incorporate nutritious ingredients like vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains in one easy dish.
Smoothies are another great vehicle to incorporate essential vitamins and minerals, protein, fiber, antioxidants, and healthy fats into your diet. Whether you're looking for a filling snack, a quick breakfast or a healthy meal on the go, there's a smoothie for you!
I personally love using my Vitamix blender when making smoothies but any high speed blender will do. For more information on creating the perfect smoothie, check out my Quick Guide to Making Smoothies.

Great choice of healthy smoothies and they all look delicious!
I love that you’ve included some smoothie bowl recipes too. They’re a great alternative to smoothies and they’re also more calorie dense so they’re more likely to fill you up for longer!

I definitely lead a healthy lifestyle throughout the year, so the new year for me is all out a good re-boot and detox... because I totally cheat and eat WAY too many cookies over Christmas. 😉 LOVING all these smoothies!!! They are all so gosh darn pretty and the flavors sound just amazing! I can't wait to try them all! I love a good grain bowl, so I'm totally heading over to check out that recipe now! Cheers, Sonali - to a happy, healthy 2017!

I LOVE my smoothies and smoothie bowls! It's hard for me during the winter sometimes with these sub zero temps but I still crave them and usually end up eating them later in the day instead of the morning. So many great option! Love my Vitamix too, it makes the smoothest thickest smoothie bowls. Getting in more smoothie and smoothie bowls sounds like a fun and doable goal for the year!

I'm totally a smoothie lover, even in the winter!! Your smoothies look SO pretty too 🙂 I always set little goals for myself each year, and this year I am focusing on 1 wellness related goal a month. So far so good! 🙂
