Blueberry Spinach Smoothie is a vibrant, nutrient-packed drink that combines sweet blueberries, fresh spinach, and creamy ingredients into a refreshing beverage. Perfect for breakfast, a healthy snack, or a post-workout boost, it’s naturally rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber.

Ingredients

  • Fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Fresh spinach
  • Banana
  • Milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
  • Greek yogurt (optional)
  • Vanilla extract
  • Honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional)
  • Ice cubes (if using fresh blueberries)

Instructions

  1. Wash the spinach thoroughly and prepare the fruit.
  2. Add the blueberries, spinach, banana, milk, Greek yogurt if using, and vanilla extract to a blender.
  3. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Taste and add honey or maple syrup if additional sweetness is desired.
  5. Blend in the chia seeds or flaxseeds if using.
  6. Add ice cubes if needed for a thicker, colder smoothie and blend again until smooth.
  7. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Frozen spinach may be used and helps create a colder, thicker smoothie.
  • Use plant-based milk and dairy-free yogurt for a dairy-free version.
  • Add protein powder, oats, avocado, hemp seeds, almond butter, or extra berries for additional nutrition and flavor.
  • Fresh blueberries work well, but frozen blueberries create a thicker smoothie.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours and shake well before serving.
  • Freeze leftovers in popsicle molds or freezer-safe containers for a refreshing frozen treat.
