Blueberries are a great source of antioxidants, fiber, and vitamin C. They’re also low in calories and high in vitamin K.
Here’s how blueberries can be used in smoothies:
- Add fresh or frozen blueberries to your morning smoothie for a burst of flavor, antioxidants, and vitamins! Add a banana for some extra sweetness and creaminess.
- Use frozen berries when making smoothies with other ingredients like yogurt or milk (soy milk works well too). This helps keep everything cold without watering down your drink with ice cubes!
