Vegetables That Go Well In Smoothies

While most of the above recipes feature spinach, the possibilities are endless!

Below is a list of vegetables and the amount you can toss into 1 smoothie for enhanced texture and nutrition. Since I want you sipping on something delicious, I also left recommendations on how to pair each veggie with different smoothie flavors. 

Let’s get to it! 

  • 1 cup baby spinach– add it to any fruit-based or chocolate smoothie. If the color green is an issue, make sure there are blueberries or raspberries in the recipe. 
  • 1 cup kale– blend it into any berry, tropical fruit, or chocolate smoothie. *Same note as above on the green color. 
  • ½ avocado– tastes wonderful in chocolate-flavored smoothies!
  • ½ cup steamed carrots– the color and flavor work for pineapple or mango-based smoothies. 
  • ½ cup butternut squash– use frozen or steamed squash in pineapple or mango-based smoothies. 
  • ½ cup steamed beets– has a strong color and flavor that works best in berry-based smoothies. 
  • ½ cup zucchini- has an undetectable flavor that you can blend into any smoothie. 
  • ½ cup diced– adds hydration and works deliciously with tropical fruit smoothies (pineapple, mango, orange). 
  • 1 cup diced cauliflower core– goes in ANY smoothie and adds plenty of volume.

Check out this quick video to see how I save my cauliflower cores for future veggie smoothies.
