This grapefruit green smoothie is one of my favorites at the moment. Since grapefruit are in season, I’ve been trying to make this smoothie as much as I can! The theme for The Recipe Redux this month is all about breaking out of you breakfast rut. (Check out the links below for even more breakfast inspiration!) Since I am a smoothie die-hard, breaking out of my normal rut usually just involves switching up some of the my usual smoothie ingredients. All winter long, I’ve been all about citrus fruit!
This smoothie isn’t just delicious, but it is also packed with fiber and nutrients like Vitamins A and C which support healthy, glowing skin and hair. In addition, yogurt is a must in most of my smoothies since it provides probiotics to support a healthy digestive system. If you don’t have almond milk, feel free to substitute it with whatever milk you have on hand at home – dairy and non-dairy alternatives both work well!
