Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Almond milk
  • 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
  • Pinch of ground cinnamon
  • ÂĽ cup dairy-free yogurt (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons agave syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients, starting with the frozen blueberries if using, ensuring they’re fresh and clean.
  2. Add to Blender: Place the frozen blueberries into a high-powered blender first, then add almond milk, fresh spinach, flaxseed meal, ground cinnamon, dairy-free yogurt, and agave syrup if using.
  3. Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, making sure no chunks remain.
  4. Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add more almond milk or ice cubes one tablespoon at a time and blend again to reach your preferred consistency.
  5. Serve: Pour the smoothie into prepared glasses, optionally garnish with a few fresh spinach leaves, then serve immediately with a straw and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use frozen blueberries for a thicker, colder smoothie.
  • Adjust sweetness with agave syrup or substitute with honey if preferred.
  • Dairy-free yogurt adds creaminess but can be omitted for a lighter smoothie.
  • Adding ice cubes can help chill the smoothie without diluting flavor significantly.
  • Flaxseed meal provides extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids, boosting nutritional value.
