Pomegranate Smoothie
Servings: 1
This pomegranate smoothie gets its sweet-tart flavor from pomegranate arils, frozen strawberries, raspberries and cherries. A cup of red cabbage hides inside for a ruby-red color, and chia seeds thicken it up, with 20 grams of fiber per glass.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup red cabbage chopped
- ½ cup water chilled
- ½ cup pomegranate arils
- ½ cup strawberries frozen
- ½ cup raspberries frozen
- ½ cup cherries frozen
- 2 tablespoon chia seeds
Instructions
- Pour the water into a blender. Add the cabbage and pomegranate arils and blend until smooth.
- Add the strawberries, raspberries, cherries, chia seeds and goji berries, if using. Blend on high until smooth, 45 to 60 seconds, adding a splash more liquid if it's too thick. Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- Can substitute pomegranate arils with 1/2 cup pomegranate juice.
- Use at least 1 frozen fruit for a refreshingly cool smoothie.
- Swap out the cabbage for the leafy green vegetables of your choice.
- Feel free to add in some antioxidant smoothie cubes for even more red foods.
