Blueberry Lavender Smoothie {Vegan, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free}

August 17, 2016 by lauren.kelly 7 Comments

Refreshing, healthy, delicious and relaxing, this Blueberry Lavender Smoothie is plant-based and completely stress-free.

There is something about lavender that just makes me happy.  The fragrance reminds me of simpler times as a young girl visiting my grandmother.  She had these lavender soaps in her bathroom and I always loved the smell.  It just smelled clean and fresh.

I recently visited my local Savory Spice Shop and I felt like a kid in a candy store.  I stumbled on culinary lavender and knew I had to:

1. Smell it all day long.

2. Make lots of things with it.

It might sound strange to put lavender in a smoothie but it was just enough to make it fragrant and not over-powering.  In foods such as this smoothie, lavender is slightly sweet but still floral.  I loved it.

This gorgeous smoothie (if I do say so myself) is packed with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and protein.  I just had to add some protein to this beauty.  Oh and I added spinach because, well, it’s spinach!

I was excited to try Bob’s Red Mill new Vanilla Protein Powder and was fortunate enough for them to send me some sample to try.  Loved it.  Plant based pea protein with chia and probiotics, what’s not to love?

    I made lavender ice cream this summer, and wow, fell even more in love with it. I bet it pairs so well with the blueberries in this smoothie!
