Hi friends!
Let's talk smoothies. Specifically this smoothie…which Squish is currently asking for on repeat. Before you freak out over the fact that there's cauliflower in there….let me tell you, I resisted for a while as well, but don't knock it til you try it!
For years, spinach in smoothies has been all the rage…but move over leafy greens…there's a new smoothie veggie in town and it's cauliflower. It works perfectly in smoothies because it doesn't really have much taste AND it's white, so you can't see it once it's blended in. This is great for people (or kids) who get turned off by the green tint that spinach adds to smoothies- even though you can't taste it.
If you're feeling wild, you can actually add spinach to this smoothie as well, for even more veggies. Wild blueberries are the best for making the green less noticeable. I use it in my Blueberry Kefir Smoothie all the time! This smoothie is similar…with a few tweaks.

I've been using this combo for a while now and it's a big hit at our house. If you're looking for more options using frozen cauliflower, check out this Strawberry Banana Cauliflower Smoothie from Julie or this Chocolate Gingerbread Protein Smoothie from Alexis!
Per usual, smoothies are super easy to throw together and this one is no exception! I do usually take a minute to chop my cauliflower florets a little smaller before blending just to make sure they get all chopped up, but you don't have to.
Here's how you make it:
