Yummy Vegan Smoothies

Happy Monday! I hope you had a fun Easter Weekend. The hubby and I hosted our family Easter party at our house yesterday afternoon. Since my Birthday was last week, we celebrated my 28th Birthday yesterday too. We really enjoyed getting the house together (the backyard needed some serious attention) and celebrating with our family. I’ll have to share my sister Sarah’s recipe for the delicious Chickpea Burgers she made for our party. They were so good! For now, I’d like to share our yummy breakfast.

Frozen Blueberries

While the hubby and I were shopping for our party last week, he picked up a NutriBullet. We’ve used it twice everyday since we got it. Trying new smoothie recipes has made us buy more fresh fruits and vegetables, and we’ve also started to eat healthier meals. If you follow my blog, you know I love to bake. I could live on vegan bread and cookies. Making fruit and veggie smoothies makes eating healthy convenient and more interesting to me than a salad or bowl of fruit.

Vita-Berry Blast Recipe (modified)
· handful of organic spring greens
· 1 banana
· 1 cup frozen organic blueberries
· Handful of organic strawberries
· 1 tbsp flaxseed meal
· 1/2 handful of walnuts
· 1 cup water
· Handful of ice

Combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth. This is my favorite Nutriblast recipe we’ve tried so far. I like my smoothies chilled, so I added ice and used frozen blueberries, which are also priced better than fresh.

Fresh Pineapple

Toxin Cleansing Blast Recipe (modified)
· Handful organic spinach
· 1 banana
· 1/2 cored organic green apple
· 1 cup fresh pineapple
· 1 tbsp flaxseed meal
· 1 cup water
· Handful of ice

Combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth. Feel free to add more ice or water to achieve the desired consistency. The hubby tried this Toxin Cleansing recipe for the first time today and he really enjoyed it. I love the bright green color, which reminded me of my favorite creamy green smoothie by Kris Carr.

Hers and His Vegan Nutriblasts

I’ve been wanting to share hers and his vegan smoothies ever since I saw this post over on Sprouted Kitchen. It was really nice to have spent our morning together making healthy smoothies and enjoying them on the porch. I hope you have a wonderful week!
