Smoothies are a go-to breakfast for many, especially as the weather warms up. Have you tried adding beans to your smoothie yet?? It may sound odd but trust us - it works! Boost the fiber, protein, and creaminess of your smoothie by adding beans. Try this Chocolate Banana Black Bean Smoothie and the Strawberry Banana White Bean Smoothie and let us know what you think. We'd love to see your photos, so please tag us!

Find the recipe for both these smoothies at Food Smart Colorado, link in bio.
