Smoothies are a quick way to feed your appetite and, truthfully, your soul. A fruity mix of slushed goodness is a great addition to your morning breakfast or lunch, and with the right ingredients, they can offer a world of nutrients with every sip.
In addition to the regular vitamin A, B, and Cs that find their way in your smoothie via fruits and vegetables, you can sprinkle in some other ingredients that are good for promoting health and longevity.
For us, we’ve been obsessing over the Dose & Co. Pure Collagen. The powder offers unflavored type 1 and 3 collagen peptides with no artificial ingredients. Their high-quality, natural collagen protein supports skin elasticity for smooth, youthful skin, as well as strong hair and nails. Collagen is great for joint and gut health, too! You can sprinkle two teaspoons of it in your morning coffee, water, or better yet, in a smoothie.
To get you inspired, we’ll start you off with some of the smoothie recipes we’re turning to when we need our collagen fix.
Banana Berry Smoothie
This smoothie is as simple as it sounds: a harmonious blend of bananas, spinach, protein, chia seeds, and more. With a dash of collagen, you can turn this fruity blend into a powerhouse concoction.
Blueberry Collagen Smoothie
Blueberries are great, offering one of the highest antioxidant levels of all fruits. They’re known to promote optimal brain health, and also work to support healthy skin — just like collagen.
Pineapple Passion Collagen Smoothie
Start your day off right with this tropical smoothie. The smoothie offers the perfect fruit to veggie ratio so your taste buds won’t suffer from the bitterness of the greens.
Coffee Protein Smoothie
You don’t have to be a coffee lover to enjoy this coffee-infused smoothie. This morning-approved smoothie is packed with the powerhouse Cs: cold brew, collagen, cauliflower rice, cashew butter, chia seeds, and cinnamon (among other ingredients).
Collagen Matcha Smoothie
You know we had to do a smoothie recipe that focuses on greens. This blend here combines matcha, spinach, and collagen peptides for a morning drink that’s packed with vitamins that combat inflammation, leaky gut, and wrinkles.
