💖 Why You'll Love This Blueberry Banana Smoothie?
- Fiber Rich Anthocyanins - Blueberries are packed full of fiber and anthocyanins, which give it that rich purple blue hue. They are flavonoids that can help protect your heart and cancer prevention.
- Prebiotic Fiber - Bananas are a great source of inulin fiber, which is a natural prebiotic for gut health.
- Mineral Rich - This mineral rich smoothie contains iron, but also magnesium, to help you get a good night's rest.
🥣 Blueberry Smoothie Ingredients
You only need a few simple ingredients to make the best-tasting blueberry smoothie recipe. I like to keep these key ingredients in my pantry and refrigerator at all times
- Blueberries - Packed with fiber-rich anthocyanins, and vitamins C and K.
- Bananas - Rich in prebiotic and inulin fiber, great for gut health.
- Flax Seeds - Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and help balance hormones.
- Spinach - Rich in the mineral iron to help produce hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to other parts of your body. Also, it is necessary to make hormones, like erythroferrone and hepcidin. Iron increases the erythroferrone, while simultaneously suppressing hepcidin, which allows more iron to be readily available for red blood cell production (1,2).
- Chocolate Protein Powder - Protein-packed chocolate, what more can you ask for?
- Milk of Choice - I prefer non-dairy milk and use unsweetened almond milk in this smoothie recipe.

❄️ Storage
This recipe is for one serving. If you choose to double or make a big batch of this recipe, store the blended smoothie in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
I like to meal prep my ingredients in smoothie bags without any liquids. You can store these smoothie bags in the freezer or refrigerator. This ensures it stays fresh, and the vitamin mineral content won't decrease as time passes.
Then the day I want a smoothie, I simply pour the items from the bag into my blender, add milk or water, and blend away.

⭐️ Top Tip
Using frozen blueberries is the key to getting an extra thick smoothie. Frozen fruit not only makes your drinks cold, but also allows the liquid to thicken up into a creamier, thicker consistency.
