First and foremost, happy Friday to you all!
We have two very special guests staying with us this weekend so I am one happy gal.
************
I’m keeping it short and simple for you all this Friday.
I have been really loving my smoothies lately especially now that I have reintroduced bananas back into my diet. I have been mixing up lots of different concoctions but have found one that has become my go-to smoothie.
I never really measure out the ingredients, I prefer to “eyeball” them, but I did my best to estimate the correct measurements per ingredient so you can try making it at home yourself!
My Go-To Blueberry Smoothie
- about 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
- 1/4-1/2 cup frozen pineapple
- 1/2 frozen banana
- handful of kale
- spoonful of hemp protein powder
- spoonful of raw cacao powder
- spoonful of almond butter
- touch of stevia
- 1/2-1 cup almond milk
Give it a good whirl in your blender or Nutribullet until completely blended. Enjoy as an on-the-go breakfast or a perfectly healthy afternoon snack!
Warning: Be careful drinking this smoothie when wearing white clothes! I usually play it safe by wearing an apron in the car if I’m taking it on the go. Nerd alert.
I hope you all have a fantastic Friday! xoxo
Question: What’s in your go-to smoothie?
This smoothie sounds great! I hope you have fun visiting with your friends.

It’s incredibly delicious!
Have so much fun with your brother!! And I have never thought to put pineapple in a smoothie before – great idea 🙂 It was wonderful, as always, to see you today – let’s plan something again soon!

It adds a nice little sweetness! Back at ya babe. Can’t wait to see you again!
Smoothies are one of my favorite things – especially in the summer. I usually keep it pretty simple with a mix of yogurt, OJ and frozen fruit.

I really need to get myself a blender or nutri bullet. Every time you post another recipe I want a smoothie so bad and this one sounds great. I love bananas!!!

The nutribullet makes smoothie making so much more enjoyable because it is so quick and the clean up is so easy! I love bananas too!
Hi, can you give exact amounts on this? I have no concept of correct mixes…
also, I only have a tiny magic bullet..will be that be sufficient? Again thanks, and hope u can email me!!
Hi there! I did my best to guess the measurements for this smoothie. Don’t be afraid to throw things into the mix. It’s hard to mess smoothies up too bad. Good luck!
Thanks. I hope my magic bullet is okay. I have no idea how to properly mix smoothies ingredients and think I overcomplicate it. Wondering about avocado additions, etc. Oh my, so much to figure out!
