This veggie packed meal replacement smoothie is high in protein, low in sugar and perfect as a healthy and simple breakfast meal replacement.
Today, I’m sharing one of the brand new recipes featured from my smoothie cookbook ~the Tropical Cucumber Smoothie.
This recipe is unique because we’re adding in some veggies. I’m typically not known to add veggies into my smoothies because most veggie smoothies either:
- taste “bleh” or
- are so loaded with fruit and sweeteners that all veggie benefit is nearly lost
But I was able to create a refreshing, yet satiating veggie packed smoothie that you’ll *actually* want to drink!
Storing and Reheating
You can blend this smoothie the night before and store in a sealed glass container in the fridge. When you’re ready to drink it, just give the smoothie a shake!
