Not only is it convenient, but you can pack in a lot of nutrition in that one quick drink. Here, we offer some seasonal smoothies to make the most of winter flavors and produce.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>This <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/apple-nut-smoothie-3362724\"><strong>Apple and Nut Smoothie<\/strong><\/a><strong> brings in the flavors of the season<\/strong>. To make it, blend gala or pink lady apples, roasted, salted peanuts, yogurt and honey until mostly smooth. Then toss in some ice cubes and blend until completely smooth, adding water as needed to adjust the consistency. It\u2019s the perfect, satisfying snack after a long, chilly day at school, and if need to make it nut-free, you can substitute wheat germ for a snack that\u2019s just as hearty.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pumpkin is king throughout the cold season, so we\u2019d be remiss if we didn\u2019t include this <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/pumpkin-ginger-smoothie-3363042\"><strong>Pumpkin Ginger Smoothie<\/strong><\/a>. Unlike the rich pumpkin desserts and sugary pumpkin drinks that can drag us down, this fiber-packed smoothie has a bit of a refreshing tang. It\u2019s easy to make, by putting pumpkin puree, yogurt, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, ginger and cinnamon into a blender and blending until smooth. Once it\u2019s poured into glasses, dust lightly with cinnamon to finish it beautifully.<\/li>\n<li><strong>If you\u2019ve got leftover cranberries from a holiday celebration, that\u2019s a great excuse for this <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/cran-sicle-smoothie-3363109\"><strong>Cran-Sicle Smoothie<\/strong><\/a><strong>. <\/strong>Mix frozen cranberries with orange juice and maple syrup for a touch of sweetness, vanilla yogurt, plus wheat germ for a nutty flavor and a healthy dose of zinc, iron, and vitamins B and E. Garnish with a thinly sliced cranberry.<\/li>\n<li><strong>This <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/banana-nog-smoothie-3362992\"><strong>Banana Nog Smoothie<\/strong><\/a><strong> is a great alternative to eggnog, low in fat and filled with fiber<\/strong>. To make it, blend banana with yogurt, dates, and nutmeg until mostly smooth, adding ice and blending completely.<\/li>\n<li><strong>As the winter drags on, a <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/green-smoothie-3362937\"><strong>Green Smoothie<\/strong><\/a><strong> gives a good boost to your energy levels, mood, and immune system<\/strong>. Mix vitamin C-rich pineapple and frozen grapes with nutrient-dense kale, plus lemon juice, ginger, and flaxseed for a powerhouse smoothie that\u2019s also full of fiber.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When fresh berries are not in season, you can still brighten your morning with frozen berries and this <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/red-berry-and-beet-smoothie-3362663\"><strong>Red Berry and Beet Smoothie<\/strong><\/a>. It\u2019s delicious, with an earthy flavor, and loaded with antioxidants and fiber. To prepare it, blend berries, beet, lemon juice, honey, and coconut oil.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When you\u2019re trying to reach your fitness goals, a supportive environment can enhance the experience.
