I just feel so much better when I start my day with this much colour. This Blueberry smoothie is sweet and creamy and ready in just a couple of minutes. Great as breakfast or a snack, if you are short on time then throw together this filling and vibrant smoothie.
Blueberry Smoothie
This is a really simple smoothie, but far from boring. I usually have more than just a smoothie for breakfast, but if that is all I have time for then this is the one I choose. It’s nutrient dense and pretty filling with the oats and cashew butter. You could add some flax or chia seeds too.
This smoothie is kid approved too. They love the colour, it’s nice and sweet and the flavours aren’t too overpowering either.
Creamy Blueberry Smoothie
This really is a super creamy smoothie, and there are a few different ingredients to thank for that. Banana is always a must for a creamy smoothie, but we added some Greek yoghurt too. Also, the blended up oats add an extra layer of creaminess, as well as making it more filling.
If you aren’t a fan of banana, then you could add half an avocado instead. Avocado doesn’t really have a taste, but you will lose some of the sweetness that the banana gave. Make this even creamier by using a frozen banana.
Vegan Blueberry Smoothie
If you want to make this a vegan blueberry smoothie, then just swap the Greek yoghurt for coconut or soya yoghurt and use maple syrup instead of honey.
Another great vegan addition to this smoothie is a splash of coconut milk. It makes it even creamier, and of course with a little hint of coconut.
Healthy Blueberry Smoothie
I think that we all know how amazing blueberries are by now? They are a rich source of antioxidants and packed with vitamin C, K and fibre. Not only that, but they turn smoothies an awesome colour.
We added some honey to this smoothie, as we like ours nice and sweet. But you could always leave it out to save some calories and sugar. Want to give it a green boost? Throw in some spinach too.
