You’d never guess there’s a whole cup of zucchini in this smoothie — it blends right in, adding a thick and creamy texture without any veggie taste. Paired with frozen blueberries, banana, oats, and a splash of coconut milk, this smoothie makes a wholesome and vibrant start to the day. It’s naturally sweet, rich without being heavy, and a subtle way to work veggies into your morning routine.

It was okay but I thought it was lacking something taste-wise, not sure what. Great ways to eat more fruit and veg though

Delicious! What type of soymilk are you using? I switch the milk with the specific brand I used, that has 3,3g of protein per 100ml, which I thought is quite normal for soymilk. The protein per serving then decreased from 15g to 8g. Did you calculate 10,3g of protein per serving with the soymilk you used?

Heyy Sarah, so glad it was enjoyed, and thanks for the question! We use regular unsweetened soy milk from our local grocery store. For the nutrition estimate, we use standard unsweetened soy milk values, though, which are around 3 g of protein per 100 g ☺️ In this smoothie, the soy milk contributes around 7 g of protein per serving, and the other ingredients, like the oats, almond butter, and even the coconut milk bump it up more as well!
This brings the smoothie to around 15 g of protein per serving. Is there any chance the recipe serving size or perhaps the total amount of soy milk may have been adjusted on your end? Hope this helps for now 🤗

Thank you for your immediate reply! It was very helpful. When I read that soy milk makes up 7g of protein in the recipe - the missing amount - I deleted the soy milk in my adjusted recipe and voilà: nothing changed. Therefore, the app didn't took my newly added soy milk at all into account, explaining the missing protein.
I live with a reduced kidney function and have to pay attention to my protein intake. Unlike the trend it's not more than absolutely needed for me.

Heyy Sarah, oh no worries at all! We totally understand and appreciate this to make sure our nutrition information is as accurate as possible 💛
We'd be happy to look into the app not taking your soy milk ingredient into account as well, just in case there may be something going on! You're welcome to share a screenshot of the custom item and its nutrition information with us at [email protected] 💌

I see my go-to breakfast ended up in the app after all! This (or the same with strawberries/raspberries instead of blueberries) and some sneaky frozen spinach is SUCH a banger; both taste- and nutrition-wise!

Yesss isn't it great, Firebolt?! Strawberries and raspberries are a lovely idea too 🍓
