Your options are endless.

Once you’ve mastered your smoothie-making technique, you can create new flavor combinations to keep things interesting. These two recipes are just a starting point.

High-Fiber Smoothie 

Get extra veggies without tasting them with this vegan recipe that’s got fiber, healthy fats, and protein. 

Ingredients 

  • 1½ cups unsweetened almond milk 
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter 
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds 
  • ½ cup frozen banana 
  • ½ cup blueberries 
  • 1 cup spinach 

MOBE Kitchen Tips:

  • Adjust the amount of each ingredient to get the flavor and consistency you want. Using more liquid will create a thinner, more drinkable smoothie. Using less liquid will result in a thicker consistency. 
  • Consider your blender when choosing ingredients like kale or hearty produce. Some will blend more easily than others. Mix and match different fruits and veggies for variety and nutritional benefits. 

Not a veggie lover? A smoothie is a great way to camouflage them without impacting the flavor. Partner with a MOBE Guide for more creative ideas to get the nutrients you need.
