Smoothies are a fantastic summer drink, and some people even use fresh veggie smoothies to detox their bodies. For one, I love a smoothie cleanses, and it is one of my preferred ways to do meal replacements. I feed this to my kids when they want snacks between meals, and I hide loads of veggies in them. However, if you\u2019re like me, you\u2019ve never required a blender. To this day, even with two kids, I don\u2019t feel like I need one! <\/p>\n
Q: Can you make smoothies in a food processor? A: This is how I have always made smoothies and will continue to make smoothies.

This is a good detox recipe the whole family can get behind. <\/p>\n \n Now the beauty of a food processor is that there is very little prep work needed. In fact, the most I do is cut the veggie in half once and stick it right in. However, you will want to make sure there is enough room in your processor. If there isn\u2019t, it can explode out the sides or top of the machine. <\/p>\n Note: If I am making smoothies for the whole family, or for a 12-hour day, I split it into two batches. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Using a food processor for smoothies changed my life. I find them easier to clean than a blender, the smoothies come out with a better texture, and I don\u2019t have to buy any extra gadgets, I already have everything. <\/p>\n Creating sweet but healthy smoothie recipes has never been easier.<\/p>\n What are some of your favorite smoothie recipes?
