Step 2. Blueberries – small berries are fully packed with antioxidants, vitamin C, K and fiber well worth considering adding to your smoothie, oatmeal or as a snack.
Step 3. Add veggies, spices – To get the most out of your smoothie, bulk it out with leafy greens.
Go for kale or spinach. These will give your smoothie that rich green colour, whilst packing in further vitamins and minerals.
