Purple smoothie in a glass jar with frozen sweet cherries and frozen blueberries on top.

Blueberry Cherry Smoothie

Danika Vanderpyl
Blueberry and cherry go together SO well to make a delicious smoothie flavor combination! Adding oats will keep you full longer, and there's a handful of spinach (I promise you won't taste it!) making this smoothie nutrient dense.

Notes

Rolled oats: Quick oats can be used instead if needed.
Fresh blueberries or fresh cherries: If using fresh fruit instead of frozen use a frozen banana (instead of a fresh banana) or add 1 cup of ice cubes to make it cold and thick.
Frozen banana: Use a frozen banana instead of a fresh banana to make this smoothie thicker.
