This blueberry smoothie recipe is creamy, nutrient-packed and delicious. It’s a total guilt-free treat; great for breakfast on busy mornings or anytime of day for a quick, healthy and light meal. Blueberries are a superfood highly rich in antioxidants and fiber; while bananas contain vitamins, protein and fiber. The flax seeds and almonds add more nutrients and necessary healthy fats.

INGREDIENTS
- 1 ½ cups fresh seasonal blueberries (or frozen blueberries)
- ½ of a peeled banana
- 1 ½ cups of almond milk
- ¼ cup almond butter
- 1 tablespoon of flax seeds or chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey, if you like sweeter smoothies
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a blender, combine all of the ingredients.
- Blend the ingredients in a high speed blender until the desired texture is achieved, usually for about 30-40 seconds. Stop to add more milk if necessary.
- Once the smoothie is completely smooth and creamy, taste it and blend in maple syrup or honey if you’d like it sweeter. Serve immediately.
- Notes: A handful of washed baby spinach is also a great addition! You can use fresh or frozen blueberries and banana, but add ice to the blender if using fresh produce to chill your drink.
