These healthy smoothie recipes are packed with nutrient-rich ingredients to start your day strong.

Tropical Chia Smoothie
If you love starting your day with a smoothie, but hate the sound of a blender first thing in the morning, here's a delicious solution: Chia seeds absorb any extra liquid as the mixture of mangoes, passion fruit and cashew milk sits in the fridge overnight.

 

Blueberry Smoothie Bowl
Smoothies aren't just for sipping. Blend together frozen berries, almond milk, almond butter, and vanilla until ultra-creamy and divine. Then, pour it into a bowl instead of a glass. Top with fresh fruit and granola, grab a spoon and dig in!

 

Berry, Chia, and Mint Smoothie
The beauty of this bold, red smoothie is that you can handle all the prep way in advance. Keep the sliced strawberries, grated beets and chia seeds in the freezer until you're ready to add milk and blend. Bonus: This drink will give you a ton of gut-friendly fiber, too.

 

Green Pineapple Coconut Smoothie
Looking to get more greens into your diet? This fruity beverage packs in a whole cup of baby spinach per serving—but you'll barely taste it. Instead, your taste buds will be focused on the tropical flavors that the pineapple, coconut, banana, and lime are bringing to the equation.

 

Stress-Less Smoothie
Tangy kefir offers gut-boosting benefits, that combined with raspberries, hemp seeds, and a peach may help you lower stress levels. Don't have hemp seeds on hand? Sub in a tablespoon of almond butter for a comparable boost of magnesium, which is key in lowering stress.

 

Coconut Matcha Shake
These creamy shakes get a boost of protein with the addition of collagen. Plus, they taste a bit like dessert, thanks to the combination of creamy coconut milk, matcha and vanilla extract.

 

Spiced Blueberry Smoothie Bowl
Sometimes smoothies can sneak in tons of sugar and that's especially true when it comes to smoothie bowls. Adding frozen cauliflower helps to bulk up the smoothie, without amping up the sugar factor too much. (P.S. You won't really taste it!)

 

Creamy Kale Smoothie
This smoothie is from the Balanced Gut section of Prevention’s Smoothies & Juices. Packed with protein and probiotics, Greek yogurt is a natural gut-health booster.

In a blender, combine 1 cup coarsely chopped kale, 1 1/2 cup frozen pineapple chunks, 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, and 1 tsp honey. Blend until the mixture is smooth and frothy.

 

Citrus-Pineapple Smoothie Bowl
This smoothie bowl is a fun way to switch up your routine. It features vitamin C–rich citrus fruit, heart-healthy cashews, and gut-healthy Greek yogurt.

Put 1/2 cup fat-free Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup frozen pineapple chunks, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 navel orange, segmented, and 1/2 ruby grapefruit, segmented, in a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth, and divide between 2 bowls. Top with more orange and grapefruit, plus chia seeds, unsweetened coconut flakes, and chopped cashews.

 

Peach Blueberry Smoothie
This sweet blend will have you feeling like it’s summertime in the dead of winter with blueberries and peaches. Plus, you’ll get your daily dose of greens with nutrient-rich kale. A dash of cinnamon is the perfect touch.
