Superfood Flax Seed Smoothie

When in doubt, make a smoothie! This blueberry flax superfood smoothie is one of the most nutrient-packed smoothies, ever. We love this smoothie because it is made with simple ingredients, yet is creamy and delicious.

Ingredients in the blender.

What You Need

We packed this smoothie with healthy ingredients that are accessible to everyone! Let’s break down all of the ingredients and why they are healthy!

  • Blueberries- You can find blueberries in most of the frozen sections at the grocery store! They are packed with fiber, potassium, and vitamin C!
  • Ground Flaxseed– Say hello to the nutrient-packed ground flaxseed! Flaxseed is known for being super high in fiber and omega 3 fatty acids!
  • Spinach- You don’t have to be forced by your mom to eat your spinach! When you blend spinach into a smoothie you can’t even taste it! Spinach is packed with protein, iron, vitamins, and minerals. WOWWY.
  • Greek yogurt- Greek yogurt is the key to making smoothies creamy! Greek yogurt is also loaded with protein!
  • Almond Milk- When it comes to milk alternatives, we are big fans of almond milk! Almond milk just happens to be high in protein and low in calories, too!

Are flaxseed smoothies healthy?

Yes, superfood smoothies are healthy! They get some bad flack for being calorie-dense. But superfood smoothies are packed with healthy calories that are so good for your body!

Just be sure not to have a smoothie for every meal! It’s all about balance!

What are the best smoothie toppings?

Toppings are one of the best parts of a smoothie. You can choose what direction to go! Here are a list of some of our favorites!

I have a drink like this about 6 days a week, I jammed spinach in my blending cup, at least one heaping tablespoon of ground flax seed, top it off with frozen blue berries and pour Old Orchard Healthy Balance Grape Juice (very low in sugar) over it. SOOOOO good

Really liked the flavors. Didnโ€™t really notice the spinach, but liked getting the extra vitamins from the greens. This smoothly kept me really satisfied for many hours. Thanks for posting it!
