Description

Indulge in a luscious blueberry smoothie, a simple yet satisfying choice for a swift breakfast or a midday snack. This creamy concoction is designed to keep you feeling full and energized until your next meal, making it a smart pick for busy days. Naturally suited for vegan diets, this smoothie offers a gentle sweetness from a handful of blueberries, perfectly complemented by a protein boost from chia seeds.

The base is a smooth almond milk, but feel free to explore other plant-based nut milks to find your favorite. For a richer texture, coconut cream is blended in, though heavy cream can be used for a similar effect. A touch of sweetener enhances the overall flavor, but you can easily adjust the amount or use your preferred alternative to suit your taste.

Coconut oil adds a velvety smoothness and healthy fats, but MCT oil works equally well, or you can omit it for a lighter option. This smoothie is incredibly versatile, allowing you to customize it with a variety of nutritious ingredients. Add a handful of spinach for a boost of vitamins and minerals, or sprinkle in some flax seeds for extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.

For a more substantial and protein-packed smoothie, consider adding a scoop of vanilla protein powder, which will also impart a delightful flavor. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch, a revitalizing snack, or a pre- or post-workout treat, this blueberry smoothie fits the bill perfectly. Its delightful flavor and creamy texture make it a true pleasure to drink, while its customizable nature ensures that it meets your individual dietary needs and preferences.

Enjoy this delightful and adaptable smoothie any time of day – it's a delicious and nourishing way to fuel your body and satisfy your cravings.

Instructions

    1.
    Finely chop the mint and add to a blender. Add coconut milk, almond milk, blueberries, chia seeds, coconut oil, and xylitol. Secure the blender's lid.
    2.
    Blend until smooth and the coconut oil is completely incorporated. You may still have small flecks of chia remaining. Taste, and add more sweetener if required.
    3.
    You do not want to refrigerate after making it as the oil will solidify and the chia will gel. Pour into 2 glasses. Serve immediately.
