Sometimes you want a simple, no-nonsense smoothie. A smoothie that doesn’t require going to the organic food market and spending $50. I mean that $50 smoothie is usually filled with every superfood out there and it will make your skin glow, but sometimes it’s nice to just go back to the basics. This Healthy Strawberry Smoothie is perfect for a slow, easy going, morning. Sipping on this in bed sounds like the perfect way to start the day to me.
I was at the Kelowna Farmer’s Market this weekend and bought my first batch of strawberries of the season! I was maybe a little too excited when I saw that juicy, red fruit sitting in the market stalls. Which is why there will be a lot of strawberry recipe testing happening this week- starting with this one.
here are a few reasons why I love this healthy strawberry smoothie, so listen up!
- Dairy-free smoothies are pretty easy to find nowadays at your local smoothie joint. The downside when you buy one at a store is that they usually are $10. Which I’m all for when you are in need of a treat. But if you want one every morning, boy that adds up. With this vegan strawberry smoothie, you can make a delicious and simple liquid breakfast in the comfort of your own home. You most likely have these ingredients in your freezer and pantry. And if not, they are easy and affordable to find in the store.
- My Picky Husband doesn’t usually like smoothies. He usually gags and chokes them down. And I swear they aren’t gross. He’s the weird one. But he actually loves this smoothie. It tastes like strawberries and cream and no one can say no to that.
- This breakfast smoothie takes at the most 8 minutes to blend up. You can probably make it in 5 minutes. A 5-minute breakfast sounds pretty wonderful to me. Especially on those crazy weekday mornings.
If you love smoothies as much as me, try my broccoli smoothie or this yummy banana + beet smoothie ♥
This vegan strawberry smoothie is Picky Husband Approved, and even Pip was seen sneaking a few licks himself. So I’d say this is a crowd-pleasing smoothie that everyone can enjoy. Try it out this Sunday for Father’s Day!
