Blueberry + Hemp Green Smoothie {Kale Smoothie with Blueberries, Hemp + Walnuts}

Start your day off right with this sweet blueberry and kale smoothie with hemp seeds and walnuts; you’d never guess it’s gluten-free, vegan, and loaded with antioxidants!

This is one sneaky green smoothie; the creamy almond milk, hemp, and walnuts paired with the sweet blueberries and golden pear hide all the green flavors. Making this a husband and kid-friendly green smoothie {ps – this berry blend for green smoothie beginners is also a crowd pleaser}.

It’s blueberry season you guys! Finally I can purchase my favorite fruit in bulk without hiding the grocery bill from my husband {because a pack of 10 bloobs for $5.99 is simply ridiculous; I only caved at the grocery store like 7 times this winter…shhh, don’t tell Tim}.

Back to my love affair with blueberries; they are kind of the show-offs of the fruit world. They’re adorable and snackable, perfectly sweet, and above all, packed with antioxidants. Not to mention, blueberries are low in sugar which makes them the perfect, sweet addition to any green smoothie.

Pair a handful of blueberries with powerful plant-based hemp protein, walnuts, golden pear, ginger and the super-alkalizing greens, kale and spinach and you’ve got yourself an all-natural, vegan breakfast smoothie. Of course you can’t forget the creamy, unsweetened vanilla almond milk {i love califia farms} which blends these vitamins and minerals together!

Blueberry + Hemp Green Smoothie

But I didn’t come up with this recipe all on my own. I actually adapted the ingredients from the Daily Harvest Blueberry + Hemp Booster Smoothie.

I recently got my hands on some of these Daily Harvest blends; despite the fact that they don’t officially deliver to Minneapolis quite yet {hold tight, they will officially be launching in Minneapolis in July}. And I must admit, it kind of makes me never want to make my own green smoothies again.

It’s so easy, all you do is add your liquid {water, coconut water, nut milk} to the flash-frozen, organic produce that’s been pre-portioned and delivered to your doorstep in an adorably, designed cup that even has a straw-ready lid. It’s pretty much genius! #superfoodssuperfast

So if you’re in the market for quick and easy superfood smoothie blends delivered to your door, you must try Daily Harvest. And you can use the promo code: nourish25 to get 25% off your first order! Minneapolis friends I’ll let you know once Daily Harvest starts delivering their goods here.

In the meantime, you can blend up my version of this blueberry + hemp green smoothie the hold fashioned way!
