50 Smoothies {Road Snack Survival Guide}

I'm adding 50 Smoothies to my Road Snack Survival Guide more for me, than for Bubba and the crew. Don't get me wrong they will drink a smoothie every-so-often. But, for the most part they want a "Manly Breakfast"!!! When I do make smoothies for them it is in addition to their "Manly Breakfast". 

Smoothies are nutritious, full of vitamins and fruit {they taste good too}. I figure if I can get a smoothie down them then they will be energized for the day ahead.
