Smoothie Challenge Time!

Are you doing the 5 Day Smoothie Challenge? If you're a regular subscriber to this blog or my social media, you'll know that this week I am hosting my 5 Day Smoothie Challenge! This has been such a fun challenge and I have really enjoyed seeing all the smoothies that y'all are making!

I love smoothies because they are a quick and easy way to have a delicious and nourishing breakfast. Plus, there are so many yummy flavor combos! I made a free download of my 5 Fave Smoothie Recipes that you can download here. These recipes are also the smoothies that we are trying during the 5 Day Smoothie Challenge!

It's not too late the join the 5 Day Smoothie Challenge! Just download My 5 Fave Smoothie Recipes here and you'll automatically receive a daily email with the smoothie of the day, as well as a link to the recipe video.

So if you've been wanting to start eating better, just in time for the summer, this is your time to start the 5 Day Smoothie Challenge!

In the meantime, here's one more smoothie recipe to welcome in the warm weather... my Pina Colada smoothie!

Who's ready for a Vacation???

Ok, well I can't actually give everybody a vacation, but I can make a vacation-inspired smoothie!

I was at the grocery store the other day and my daughter picked up one of those fruit drinks that had a Pina Colada flavor. So I, of course, said to myself, "I can totally make that at home!" And I did!

This is the perfect summer smoothie! It is also perfect to add a little pink umbrella to so you can sip it poolside and pretend you're somewhere exotic!

What makes the perfect smoothie?

This Pina Colada smoothie has all the same components that I usually have in my smoothies.

Protein from the Vanilla Protein Powder
Fiber from the fresh or frozen pineapple
Greens from the greens in the protein powder. You could also add greens like spinach or kale into the smoothie if your protein powder doesn't have greens in it. Note that, adding spinach or kale to the smoothie, will make the smoothie a green color.
Healthy fats from the coconut oil
Superfoods from the chia seeds

These 5 components make sure that the smoothie is not only delicious, but also satisfying and filling.

For more info on why these 5 components are so important to the smoothie, check out my Facebook Live replay on my Get Nourished with Renata Facebook group!

I hope you give this recipe a try! Make sure you take a photo of your smoothie and tag me at @nourish_with_renata and using the hashtag #nourishwithrenata on IG so I can see what you make!
