I’m sipping on this feel good pick-me-up blueberry pear smoothie as I type. This makes a great breakfast smoothie because it gives me a nice jolt of energy. With a 10-month old baby that still wakes up a couple times a night, I’ll take all the energy I can get! This blueberry pear smoothie also packs alot of protein so it keeps my energy levels up. Super healthy, easy (with 4 ingredients) and so tasty!
We down the most smoothies in winter because fruit is much more reasonable in the freezer isle and we otherwise would not consume nearly as much fruit in the cold months. Smoothies also help us feel better about our”eat healthier” new year’s resolutions ;).

Yummy. I added a little vanilla Greek yogurt, 1 cup of frozen blueberries instead of 2 , 1/2 frozen banana, flax seeds and cinnamon.
Looks delicious. How do you store remaining 3 servings? Do you freeze or refrigerate? Do you need to run through blender again?
Hi Iris, we prefer these fresh. You can definitely try freezing it!
This is so good. The only changes I made is I used maple syrup instead of agave or honey and I added a tablespoon of chia seeds.
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Natasha,
Could this smoothie be made ahead? For example the night before, then I can grab it out of my fridge on my way to work?

Hi Marisa! For maximum nutrition and taste I think it’s best fresh but yes, that should be fine.
