Also, make sure that you peel the produce (or scoop out its edible flesh if it’s soft) and remove the seeds before you put your fruits and veggies in a blender. Unlike a juicer that separates the pulp and peel from the final product, a blender pretty much mixes everything to make a drink.
So, here are the yummy smoothie recipes you are here for.
