Healthy can be a much debated term with very differing definitions. In our family we don't follow one specific diet. We don't eat exclusively vegan, paleo, or low-carb. However, we try to eat real (non-processed), nutrient-rich food as much as possible.

I think we can all agree, no matter what diet you follow and what you consider healthy, we all can use more vegetables! I love the concept of 'half your plate' - at every meal, half of the plate should consist of fruits and vegetables.

No problem, at least for lunch and breakfast. If you are used to a regular Western breakfast however, incorporating vegetables into the first meal of the day may be a challenge. Smoothies are a perfect solution. You can blend up vegetables together with delicious fruit, and you'll never even taste any vegetables.

To give you more guidance and inspiration, I collected the best healthy smoothie recipes from Leelalicious and from fellow food blogger friends.
