I’m so ready for spring, you guys! Are you? I’m at that point where I’m basically trying to FORCE spring into my life, even if it hasn’t happened on its own yet. I’m dreaming of the warm sun, fun vacations, the beach, beautiful spring dresses, flowers, and warm weather! And since that hasn’t technically happened yet, I’ve put all of those things into this Tropical Breakfast Smoothie!
The good news is that spring truly is just around the corner. But I’m not waiting until spring gets here to have spring in my life! <—- That’s epic. It should be a life quote or something! 🙂

Top Tips for Making this Tropical Breakfast Smoothie:
- Choose a bunch of fruits with similar colors to serve it as I have in the photos
- You can add protein powder for an extra boost
- Top your smoothie with granola, nuts or seeds for added texture
- Frozen fruits help give a cool, thick and ice cream like texture to smoothies so try use frozen when you can otherwise the texture will be more like juice.
