Smoothies

Berry Broccoli Smoothie

October 28, 2019 by Rachel Leave a Comment

Smoothies are a great way to get extra veggies into your diet. This Berry Broccoli smoothie is a fun alternative to a traditional green smoothie. You won’t even realize that it is loaded with broccoli! This is such a great way to start your day.

This photo looks a bit too much like a holiday candle for my liking BUT, I promise, this Berry Broccoli Smoothie is delicious.

I have a few picky eaters in my house and I’ve found that smoothies are the easiest (and most painless) way to make sure that they are getting the nutrition that they need.

Smoothies are even a great trick to make sure I can pack in a nutritional punch when I need to. Sometimes you just need something easy or you are craving something sweet, or you need to take something on the go.

Smoothies get the job done every time.

Note: I keep bags of frozen broccoli on hand all the time because my family loves them. They are perfect for this smoothie. I just open up a package of broccoli from the freezer and dump it straight into my blender.

This recipe doesn’t need any sweetener but it gives you just the right amount of sweetness when you need a taste of something.

Enjoy this without the banana for lower carb version.

Yield: 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

This Berry Broccoli Smoothie is a fun twist on a classic green smoothie and a great way to get more veggies into your diet.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup of frozen broccoli
  • 1 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 1 large banana
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla protein powder
  • 3-4 cups of water

Instructions

  1. Add frozen broccoli, frozen mixed berries, banana, protein powder, and water to a blender.
  2. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes or use the "smoothie" setting on your blender.
  3. Add water to think if it is too thick.
  4. Serve.

Notes

You can adjust the quantities on this to taste. For kids, I find that gradually increasing the amount of broccoli in this can make it easier for them to get used to, but we don't typically notice a strong broccoli flavor in this.

Hi! I’m Rachel

Hi! I'm Rachel. I'm a mom of 6 who is working to cut the sugar out of my family's diet. After having twins a few years ago I have struggled to lose the baby weight. It turns out I had become insulin resistant. My path to weight loss started with cutting out all the sugar in my diet . . . and it was challenging. I found out that I don't just enjoy sugar, I'm addicted to it. Finding sugar-free recipes and tricks for dealing with sugar cravings has been so hard but I felt an immediate improvement in the way I felt and I lost 8 pounds within the first 2 weeks of going sugar-free.
