What makes this smoothie special
We had lots of veggies in our pantry and fridge, and we decided to make one of those power-up healthy smoothies that I like to blend from time to time. But, as you probably know, using lots of veggies is not always a recipe for a delicious smoothie. In fact, there were a few smoothies that I rather not mention on this blog … if you know what I mean.
Back to this smoothie, well …. this smoothie turned out much better than I expected and I want to share the recipe with you.
This smoothie was:

A Bit Sweet
Spinach Taste
Well Mixed
Easy to Drink
Satisfying
Delicious
Nourishing

Ingredients list
This vegan smoothie with spinach, berries and beets was absolutely perfect instead of the more traditional cooked breakfast. We used lots of raw plants and a few boosters, and we ended-up making one of the best (and most unexpected) smoothies so far.
This smoothie was packed with “good-for-you” ingredients and we used quite a few plants, as follows:
- Avocado (skin and seed removed)
- Carrot
- Celery (stick – apio)
- Frozen Spinach
- Fennel
- Bell Pepper
- Green Apple
- Red Beet (beetroot)
- Frozen Blueberries
- Fresh Ginger (optional)
- Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
- Hemp Seeds
- Wheatgrass Powder
- Cardamom Powder
- Turmeric Powder
- Ginger Powder
- Dried Anise
- Dried Basil
- Water
How to make Spinach Blueberry Beet Smoothie
- Start by prepping all the ingredients by peeling, removing seeds and chopping everything as needed.
- Add ingredients into your blender, following the order in the recipe section.
- Add the water at the end, making sure to add enough water in order to level the ingredients.
- Cover the blender and start to mix on medium speed. Slowly increase to high-speed for 10-20 seconds and back to medium speed, if needed.
- Use the pulse function a few times if you blender has troubles pureeing everything into a thick and creamy texture.
- Make sure to have enough liquid and feel free to add more liquid, depending on your blender’s size and shape.
- Stop when you reach the desired consistency. Pour into a glass, throw in a straw and test your smoothie creation right there on the spot!
