Name: Mixed Berry Smoothie with Almond Butter
Prep time: 5 min
Total time: 5 min
Yield: 1 large or 2 small
Cuisine: Vegan
Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups unsweetened almond milk; 1/2 cup frozen raspberries (70 g); 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (70 g); 1/2 cup frozen strawberries (70 g); handful of spinach or kale (40 g); 1/2 a frozen banana (60 g); 1-2 tbsp almond butter (15 g, increase to 2 tbsp if desired)

Description

This smoothie is loaded with nutrition and amazingly thick and creamy. It almost fills a 1 L mason jar so it’s perfect as a filling, plant-based breakfast. Make it your own by going with an alternative nut or seed butter, switching up the greens or using any combination of berries up to 1 1/2 cups. Cherries or blackberries would be delicious too!

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup frozen raspberries (70 g)
1/2 cup frozen blueberries (70 g)
1/2 cup frozen strawberries (70 g)
handful of spinach or kale (40 g)
1/2 a frozen banana (60 g)
1-2 tbsp almond butter (15 g, increase to 2 tbsp if desired)
1 scoop vegan vanilla protein powder (30 g, optional)

Instructions

Add all of the ingredients to a blender and mix until smooth and creamy.

Notes

This makes quite a large smoothie suited for one for a meal or substantial snack or it can serve two for smaller, kid-friendly snack, treat or side to breakfast.

This smoothie isn’t super sweet without the vegan vanilla protein powder. It’s still good without it but if you prefer a slightly sweeter smoothie, I’d recommending adding a few dates to the recipe.
