Spring wakes us up to new possibilities and what better way to toast those new chances than with a healthy smoothie? These colorful concoctions are beloved for providing vitamins, fiber, and nutrients to the drinker, without having to down piece after piece of fruit. If you're looking for the best spring fruit smoothies, then check out these recipes and get to sipping!
Blueberry Blast
Blueberries are notoriously known for being a spring fruit, so use up your extra ones this season in a blender. Try this simple recipe for a blast in the morning, and get your day started off right. Or combine them with other members of the berry family to switch it up a little bit, and add more dimension to your drink.
Grapefruit Gardens
Grapefruit is not known for being the best fruit to eat on its own, but the color and health benefits are undeniably attractive. Get your shot of pink with a grapefruit smoothie combined with kiwis (another spring fruit.) Apples are also excellent to sweeten up your grapefruit. Even though they're a fall fruit, you can probably get away with it just this once. Or celebrate spring's favorite color this year by adding some spinach for a grapefruit green smoothie.
Apricot Animation
Bring your apricots to life this year with a little help from the strawberry. This smoothie is a jolt of energy when you're wondering how Monday arrived so quickly. Grab this on the go or do it up right with a fun glass, garnish and straw. These little touches can make your smoothies even more enjoyable.
The apartments in Flagstaff are a great place to try new recipes and make them your own. If you're looking for the right kitchen to test out your next smoothie, check out Highland Village Apartments to see what we have to offer. Call us today to find out more about our available apartments!

This April our focus is RYAS: Rocking Your Apartment’s Socks! We’ll take you from recipes to try in the kitchen to thrifty apartment décor and much more!
Our mouths started watering the moment we heard that April is National Grilled Cheese Month! Nothing will rock your apartment’s socks quite like filling your apartment with amazing smells from your kitchen … and with all the variety cooking up a grilled cheese has to offer, we have no doubt you’ll love celebrating your apartment and this tasty sandwich in tandem! Check out these five amazing grilled cheese recipes that will leave your taste buds dancing this month!
Grill Your ABCs
The basic grilled cheese is already divine. A grilled cheese with bacon? Amazing. But a grilled cheese with bacon and some nice thinly sliced apple? … Whoa. All you need is some sliced sourdough, sharp cheddar, a few strips of crispy bacon, and an apple of your choice sliced thin. Get an easy-peasy recipe here: Apple, Bacon, and Cheddar Grilled Cheese
Ooh, Honey!
This is apparently Oprah’s favorite grilled cheese … and we all know that what Oprah loves, we pretty much all love right there with her. We never would have thought of putting honey on a grilled cheese, but this recipe sounds too delish to miss. Here’s your recipe: Havarti, Honey, Tomato & Basil Grilled Cheese
The Green Goddess
Ooh-la-la! You’ll want to make sure you have a good melty cheese for this recipe that’s oozing with flavor. We’ve seen this recipe on white or wheat bread, but the real mouth-watering ingredients are all the greens: baby spinach, avocado, and Green Goddess Herb Peso? Yes, please! Check out the recipe here: Green Goddess Grilled Cheese
Kiss the Melon!
Melon? On a grilled cheese? We weren’t sold until we started reading this recipe for a Sugar Kiss melon and Chorizo-Manchego Grilled Cheese. Since it can be a little tricky to find a Sugar Kiss melon, we made this one a twofer with a Prosciutto and Melon Grilled Cheese, too! Don’t judge too quickly … we definitely encourage you to try this one out for yourself! Find recipes here: Sugar Kiss Melon and Chorizo-Manchego Grilled Cheese and Crispy Prosciutto & Melon Grilled Cheese
Holy Sweet Potato, Batman…
Here’s another twofer … because how could we say no to sweet potatoes on a sandwich?! First there’s the sweet potato and cheddar, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, which sounds almost more like a dessert than a sandwich. Then there’s the sweet potato and toasted pecan grilled cheese that sounds more like a pie than a sandwich. It’s basically dessert sandwiches … How could you say no?! Take on both these sandwiches with recipes here: Sweet Potato Cheddar Grilled Cheese and Sweet Potato and Toasted Pecan Grilled Cheese
Happy Grilling!
