Blueberry Spinach Smoothie with Chia Seeds Recipe
I love to start my day with a smoothie. They are so easy to make and you can throw whatever you have in the fridge or freezer and you’re good to go. Better yet if you add some greens and chia seeds like in this blueberry spinach smoothie it will be a healthy way to start the day.
My family and I have been drinking smoothies for several years now but when I first started them on smoothies I had to hide the greens. My hubby and daughter were not too keen on drinking kale or spinach but when I put it in a smoothie and put in berries like blueberries, sweetened them just a bit they didn’t even know they had greens in their smoothies. One of the first ones I made to hide the green was this Blueberry Spinach Smoothie with Chia Seeds. Thanks to the blueberries it wasn’t green in color and when they drank it they had no idea there was spinach it is a big win for mom!Now that they’re used to drinking this Blueberry Spinach Smoothie and other smoothies I don’t have to hide the greens anymore but because we like to have berries in them most of the time they’re rarely green in colour anymore. You can of course switch up the berries to whatever you like or use any other fruit but I like blueberries for their antioxidant properties and I love the taste.

This look like an interesting smoothie to try with spinach in humm. I may have to try it indeed thanks
I make a smoothie for breakfast every morning. This smoothie recipe sounds delicious!!!! I’m making it tomorrow morning!
Blueberries, chia, and honey? Wow! What a nice, healthy recipe to eat.

Haven’t tried spinach in a smoothie before, interesting.
This looks so good. I love smoothies. Thank you for sharing your recipe
This looks so yummy and refreshing! I’m going to have to make it!
Thank you for sharing your recipe. I have not tried this smoothie yet. It looks delicious.
This looks tasty and healthy.
I love smooothies and this one sounds delicious! I especially love the hidden spinach, I don’t think my kids would even know that it’s in there! 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing!
This is certainly a very healthy smoothie
Ah nothing like a handful of blueberries to help the spinach go down!
This smoothie sounds so good and so healthy. I really like spinach and blueberries. I can’t wait to give this a try. Thank you so much for sharing
It seems that anytime I add spinach to smoothies it turns green. I love that this recipe doesn’t have a green color and it sounds tasty!
I can’t imagine what this would taste like, but for some reason I’m willing to try it, lol. Thanks for posting!
I love smoothies! Blueberries are one of my favorite fruits, I will have to save this recipe! Thank you!
I like blueberries and spinach so this would be the perfect smoothie for me.
I know some would see spinach and think “Ew,” but I just had a similar smoothie yesterday; it used kale instead of spinach. It was surprisingly delish. I actually prefer spinach, so I will have to try this one, too!
Yum! In the summer we don’t like eating a heavy breakfast and this would be a great healthy and delicious way to start our day.
I make a similar smoothie -I use frozen blueberries and use vanilla whey protein powder instead of the vanilla yogurt – and it is delicious. I sometimes get creative and throw in other fruits and sometimes even carrots, but the original is my go-to.
Looks good! My toddler is a big fan of green smoothies; she’s been having them ever since she first figured out how to use a straw, but it can get boring having the same veg/fruit combos all the time. I’m always grateful for new recipe ideas like this!
This recipe sounds so yummy. I love blueberries an spinach
I make a very similar one. Love chia seeds in smoothies. The honey added is a great suggestion though.
This looks so good! I need a quick easy recipe to easily whip up a nice breakfast fast.
I love smoothies. This smoothie recipe looks delicious.
I love both spinach and blueberries and the fact that they are both good for you makes this recipe all the much better.
Adding spinach is great because you can’t taste it and it’s giving you added nutrients! I probably wouldn’t add chia because I don’t like the texture. I might add collagen or coconut oil. ???
This looks amazing and I’m a huge fan of smoothies. Especially spinach and Blueberries.
Oh I’m going to try this it looks so good yummy and pretty color also wow!
It sounds very healthy and yummy now I have to take a bus back to store I’m sure it will make a 71 year old feel better thank you
This looks delicious! Looking forward to trying!
I’d love to try this smoothie, I have some chia seeds and haven’t been using them. I love adding greens to smoothies!
This sounds good. I think will try it.
I would be very happy to make this
Easy Breakfast – Blueberry Spinach Smoothie, especially in the summer months. I enjoy Chia Seeds too!
Sounds and looks so healthy! During the summer months, we love creating new combinations of veggies and fruits to add to our smoothies. We definitely need to give this recipe a try.
This smoothie looks so good! I have to try it
I love blueberries and spinach, never had it together in a smoothie. I can’t wait to give this a try.
This smoothie looks delicious and super healthy! I have been looking for ways to use chia seeds in recipes.
This smoothie looks delicious and super healthy!
This is my type of smoothie! I always add spinach to my smoothies and the smoothies that I make for my children. Nobody can taste the spinach. We just enjoy the health benefits from it.
I enjoy Smoothies, especially in the summer. This smoothie seems delicious as well as healthy with wonderful ingredients added.
I have never had a smoothie but this one looks delicious.
I am not a fan of spinach smoothies but this one looks good to me with the addition of the blueberries and honey.
am sorry to say,this doesn’t look teasty
I have to get back into this! I stopped doing it for awhile and I feel the difference. I don’t care to eat vegetables, so this was the only way I was consuming nutrition. It’s not easy to make vegetables taste good!
This is one breakfast smoothie I would love to try as it has a lot of nutritional value. I will have to add this to my list.
It would tough to get kids to drink it if they knew it was part spinach.
That’s why you don’t tell them what’s in it 😉
This looks so yummy and I will have to try out the recipe 🙂
I love spinach and blueberries, I need to try this yummy looking smoothie, thanks very much for the recipe!
It looks good, but the ingredients don’t sound like they go together.
Love adding chia seeds to my smoothie. What a super food!
That’s a great recipe. I usually put blueberries in my smoothies.
This smoothie sounds so yummy. I love blueberries and this recipe would give me some spinach as well.
Sounds so delicious, a bit too much sugar for me. I would substitute with plain yogourt
This looks and sounds really good, I have to give it a try.
I have always love Blueberries and this looks like a wonderful smoothie, it has all my favorites in it, and it is better for me than all the junk drinks
I used to make smoothies all the time. I really need to get back into it. This sounds delicious!
Yum!! I need to make this. I’m pregnant and have been on the lookout for healthy recipes for on the go.
Great smoothie could enjoy daily.
Sounds delicious and healthy…just right for us. thanks so much for the share =)
I used to love smoothies. I haven’t made one in quite a while. This might be a great idea to make ahead and have ready for the mornings.
This sounds pretty good and seems to be a good way to get some spinach down.
