When summer temperatures spike, I can't hardly fathom hot breakfasts. I am ready for something cold and refreshing right away. Smoothies are a great way to get a cool, easy, and healthy meal first thing in the morning. You can change up the types of fruit to suit what you like and what you have on hand. There's only one given in making smoothies for me--they must have banana. It makes the smoothie creamy, smooth, and rich.
