This delicious roundup of Summer Smoothies is sure to keep your days brighter, your bounce lighter and your mornings a little easier.

Smoothies can be a quick & easy way to add more fruit and veggies to your diet. Not to mention, a delightful way to get extra vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber into your daily routine, especially when summers are loaded with BBQ’s, get-togethers and a little over-indulging.

So, while you’re planning your 4th of July weekend, I’m planning your recovery week (or 2) with these easy to make, summer smoothie recipes from some of my favorite blogger friends. We’ve rounded up some of the best allergy-friendly, vegan smoothie recipes to start your morning off right. And because I love you all, I’ve included a double dose of recipes to pick from so you can add another week or do two-a-days. Don’t worry, these recipes aren’t too crazy, but they will inspire you to think beyond protein powder and bananas.

With a couple minutes and one blender,  you’ll be loading up with nutrients, saving time and falling in love with all these smoothies have to offer.

While you have your blender handy, I couldn’t resist including my Berry Smoothie Pancakes recipe in this post. Berry smoothies are one of my favorite, post workout drinks but I decided to mess around with an idea of starting with a smoothie then adding to it for a naturally sweet, allergy friendly (dairy, egg & nut free), filling breakfast. Then “tada” the Berry Smoothie Pancake was born! You’ll have to give this a try, because it’s simple & absolutely delicious.
