Why a cabbage smoothie?
We are HUGE fans of putting leafy greens in smoothies. Leafy greens aid in digestion with the added fiber, and are packed with protein (among many other nutrients)!
Cabbage is no different, but it’s extra amounts of vitamin C and K make it truly unique.
Being a cruciferous leafy green, cabbage has been linked with being able to reduce inflammation—even chronic inflammation. It’s loaded with antioxidants that help to fight for the good of your body!

I love this recipe! My kids will guzzle it down too, lol! The only question I have is if there’s a good substitute for the flaxseed oil? I haven’t actually put that in because I never buy it, ha!

Hey Allison,
If you are not a fan of flax seed oil you can totally swap it for coconut oil instead!
Hope that helps 🙂
