Inspiration for a Smoothie Recipe
Lately we’ve seen cauliflower smoothies pop up on our social media feed. We got inspired and decided to recipe test a cauliflower smoothie.
After testing it out, we realized cauliflower is actually pretty amazing in smoothies. This underrated vegetable gives such a beautiful thick consistency to any smoothie or smoothie bowl.
Sometimes when making banana smoothies or nice cream, the consistency can become a bit runny. Using cauliflower holds its consistency longer.
Tips and Modifications
This smoothie will have a thick consistency, given the bananas, blueberries and cauliflower are frozen. It can be served as a smoothie or a smoothie bowl. For us, we chose a spoon instead of a straw to enjoy this recipe.
You can top with many things such as nut butters, seeds, nuts, grains, fruits, hemp hearts, chia seeds and more!
