Smoothie Obsession

I've been on a smoothie kick lately and enjoy trying all these new creations.  I think it's partially because there's so much fresh fruit available that I end up buying more than I can normally eat for snacks.  Instead of letting it go to waste, I've begun making these tasty creations since they're a great way to pack a lot of fruits and veggies into a healthy breakfast or snack.
