It also makes fruits and vegetables more enjoyable to those who really lack fibres and vitamins in their diet, not to mention that smoothies contain so much more nutrients than chips and cookies so why not pick up a smoothie instead when we are snacking next? Here are some fun ways that we can make our smoothies healthy, clean and delicious, to be honest, smoothies is actually the new milkshakes.
