Very few things are as satisfying as a smoothie made with just the right amount of ingredients. If you’re looking for healthy alternatives to give you an almost instant energy boost, then I would highly recommend that you try out smoothies.

Here are a few smoothie recipes that you should try.

  1. Berry Blast smoothie

The best thing about berries is that most times they’re neither too sweet nor too sour. It’s usually the perfect combination. If you’re into the flavour of berries then I would highly suggest that you try out this smoothie. This particular recipe gives satiety value on top of it being a delicious alternative.

Berries have several benefits. Aside from them being low in calories, they are high in fibre, vitamin C, and antioxidant polyphenols.

Ingredients

  1. Frozen berries (Strawberries, blueberries and grapes)
  2. Vanilla yoghurt
  3. 2 tbsp. honey
  4. ½ cup of milk
  5. Chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Place the yoghurt, chia seeds berries and milk in a blender then blend it all together until it’s smooth. Add some more milk if it turns out to be too thick.
  2. Taste and add honey as desired.
  3. Serve immediately.

   2. Tropical smoothie

Just like the name suggests, this smoothie is a mixture of tropical fruits. This includes avocados, bananas, mangoes, pawpaws, oranges, pineapples, and the likes. It’s a wholesome type of smoothie that will make you full and at the same time giving you an instant energy boost. They have the ability to boost your energy and provide you with essential vitamins such as Vitamin C, B vitamins and fibre.

Ingredients

  1. 1 ripe banana
  2. 1 peeled orange
  3. Frozen mango chunks
  4. Frozen pineapple chunks

  6. Fruit juice

Instructions

  1. Put the bananas, oranges, fruit chunks, fruit juice, and yoghurt together in a blender then blend it all together until it’s smooth.
  2. Add some more fruit juice as desired because this particular recipe can tend to be too thick.
  3. Serve immediately.
  1. Kale-Pineapple smoothie

This particular smoothie is best for morning hours. Most of us are willing to jump out of bed for coffee and other caffeine beverages, but how many of us would jump out for a proper healthy smoothie? This smoothie will change your mind. It has very few ingredients and yet the results are amazing.
