It’s got all the juicy, fruity vibes plus some sneaky seeds to keep things interesting—because who said healthy can’t be fun? Incorporating nutritious ingredients can elevate your meals to a whole new level. Perfect for anyone who loves to sip on sunshine with a side of superfood sass.
How to Make It
Whipping up this Purple Fruit Boost smoothie is as easy as tossing a few things in a blender and letting the magic happen. Start by grabbing your 4 tablespoons of Provamel Natural soya alternative to yoghurt—because nothing screams plant-powered like a bit of creamy soy goodness to keep things smooth and dreamy.
Then, squeeze the juice out of 3 to 4 fresh oranges; trust me, the zingy citrus wake-up call is just what your taste buds ordered. Next, throw in two generous handfuls of fresh blueberries—those little purple gems pack a punch of antioxidants and a splash of color that’ll make your blender do a happy dance.
Now, here’s where it gets fun: add in two fresh figs for that subtle natural sweetness and a bit of texture that says, “Hey, I’m fancy but I’m still easygoing.” Don’t forget the tablespoon of seeds—chia and poppy are the stars here, but honestly, if you’ve got other seeds lurking in your pantry, go wild. They add that extra crunch and a sprinkle of superpowers. Including seeds like chia seeds, which are high in omega-3 fatty acids and protein, will make your smoothie even more nutritious.
Once all your ingredients are in the blender, slap on the lid, hit the button, and watch those bits whirl into a luscious, purple-hued potion of health. It’s basically a plant-based party in a glass, and you’re the DJ.
If you’re anything like me, you’ll appreciate how this recipe trusts you to figure it out without a million steps or weird kitchen gadgets. Blend until it’s as smooth or chunky as you like—no judgment here.
Pour it into your favorite reusable cup, maybe add a cheeky straw if you’re feeling fancy, and enjoy a vibrant burst of fruity goodness that’s as simple as it’s delicious. Vegan living just got a whole lot tastier and way less complicated!
Bonus Tips
- Feeling fancy? Toss in a splash of almond milk or coconut water to keep it smooth and sippable, not smoothie-stuck-in-your-straw.
- Seeds got you feeling rebellious? Swap ’em out for hemp or flax to keep your smoothie game as unpredictable as your weekend plans.
- Pro tip: Freeze your figs and blueberries first—because who doesn’t want a smoothie that’s part fruit salad, part chilly party? Plus, add some nutritional value with a scoop of protein-rich soy milk for an extra boost!
