Tips & Tricks
Preparation tips
You can boost the fiber content of this smoothie by adding chia seeds, flax meal, or a fiber powder. This will also result in a thicker smoothie. If you don’t have blueberries on hand, feel free to use other berries but keep in mind that this may result in a tarter-tasting smoothie.
