Nothing beats a good ol’ fashioned blueberry muffin, but what about transforming this sweet delight into a smoothie? Smoothies are a great way to pack in a whole lot of nutrition – especially if you find yourself constantly on the go and with not enough time to make a balanced breakfast.
This Blueberry Smoothie packs protein and good-for-you ingredients, making it an easy breakfast option or the perfect post-workout beverage. Reminiscent of blueberry muffins, this creamy Blueberry Smoothie is even more nutritious than the breakfast staple. This particular smoothie is made up of seven simple ingredients: banana, almond butter, vanilla extract, blueberries, vanilla yogurt, milk, and Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides.
