With summer coming in just a few weeks, it has me thinking that I want to be able to stay on track as much as possible while being on the go or just wanting to lounge by the pool with my kiddos. I still love to alternate high and low carb days so that I'm fueled for my training sessions and I've really come to love filling my carbs with a cool, filling smoothie in the summer. They help me feel lean, energized, and ready to go. Makes: 1 smoothie Macros: 1 smoothie (30 P / 38 C / 4...

So easy to meal prep at the beginning of the week and easily grab out of the refrigerator for on-the-go snacks or packed lunches.
