Antioxidants! Healthy fats! Greens! Fiber!

The gang is ALL here with this gem colored smoothie and it is going to rock your world in the sense that it's a smoothie that REALLY keeps you fed up.

But having only two options is not very many options.

PLUS plus plus, I accidentally bought 2 bags of frozen blueberries, soooooooo….

Today's blueberry spinach smoothie is packed with flavor, protein, and healthy fats to keep your body nourished and full until your next meal. It's so tasty too – the whole family will love it!

Health benefits

Spinach: Spinach is a great ingredient to add to your smoothies and shakes because it has a mild taste but so many nutrients to benefit your body! Spinach is an EXCELLENT source of calcium magnesium and iron, and is rich in vitamins A, B6, and C. It can both aid digestion and boost the immune system, so spinach is always a good idea! Mixing a spinach smoothie blueberry is a great way to add it to your diet!

Blueberries: Another superfood in this smoothie is blueberries! Blueberries are very low in calories, but SUPER nutritious. They are high in fiber, manganese, vitamins C and K and are among the fruits that contain the most antioxidants. Antioxidants protect our cells from free radicals and help our bodies fight disease.

Blueberry Spinach Smoothie FAQ

How do you make smoothies more filling?

Smoothies and shakes can make great breakfasts and snacks on the go, but some of them don't fill us up and keep those hunger pangs at bay. If you want a smoothie to be filling and filling you up, adding healthy fats is enough. In this recipe I added avocado and it makes all the difference!

Can you taste spinach in smoothies?

Adding spinach to your shakes and smoothies is a great way to add these nutrients to your food in a more discreet way as the taste is very mild! If you add a handful or two of spinach to a smoothie, the taste will likely be overwhelmed by the fruits you add!

Are Smoothies Good For Weight Loss?

Smoothies can be good for weight loss when you add healthy fats to them. When replacing a meal with a smoothie, make sure it is enough to keep you full and meet your body's needs. The avocado in this smoothie is a great way to make sure it's enough!
