Cauliflower Blueberry Smoothie
Everyone was doing it….so I had to try too.
Putting frozen cauliflower in a smoothie sounded bizarre and even downright gross when I first heard about it. But the more I saw other smoothie lovers and drinkers adding it to their morning blend, I thought maybe I was missing out on an out-of-the-box idea of how to get different veggies into my family.
Fine. And me too. I’m not the biggest cauli lover on the planet, but I do know it is an awesome source of fiber, vitamins, riboflavin, niacin, magnesium, and protein. So, I try to sneak that white veggie into our lives wherever I can….so I finally decided to give the cauliflower smoothie a whirl.
Can you taste cauliflower in smoothies?
TNNers, it’s not weird! Or maybe it sound downright gross. Or the least bit funky!
Fear not! I’m here to tell you that cauliflower makes a smoothie super creamy and veggie-loaded without having to add spinach into the mix (the slightest tint of green can send some kids (and grown-ups) running for the hills, this I know)….so adding frozen cauliflower into your morning smoothie is a great way get some morning veggies into even the most resistant of veggie eaters!

So glad you love this smoothie! I know, cauli is such a smoothie surprise!
What is nut butter? I’m new to cooking, so I’m learning various of ingredients. When I google nut butter, variety of peanut butter comes up. Please help.
Hi Losado!
Nut butter is a spreadable blend of various kinds of nuts. Peanut butter is a nut butter, but there is also cashew butter, almond butter, and so on. Typically, nut butters are interchangeable in a recipe, so I put "nut butter" in my recipes so that people can use whatever kind they like best!
Are you steaming the frozen cauliflower first or putting it in your smoothie raw?
I have done both!
This was very good! Thanks for sharing , and I’ll be putting this in my smoothie rotation 😉
Where can I find these glasses at? Thanks!
I got them off of Amazon! Unfortunately, I don’t recall the name of the company. I believe they were called "Beer can glasses" though…great name, huh?
Wow! So good!
