Grapefruit Ginger Boost Smoothie
Servings 2 People
Ingredients
- ½ ruby red grapefruit, peeled, seeds removed I like Ruby Red variety
- ½ orange, peeled, seeds removed
- 3/4 cup frozen raspberries
- ½ cup frozen riced cauliflower
- ½ cup whole milk Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp hulled hemp seeds
- 2 tbsp almond butter or tahini
- 2 inch knob ginger
- 2-4 dates, pitted (optional)
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup water
- Pinch of salt
- *I found that the Ruby Red grapefruits I got at Costco had little to no seeds at all, so I didn’t pick out the seeds. If your grapefruit has a lot of large seeds, try to remove them but don’t worry if you don’t get them all.
- Note: grapefruit and raspberries are very tart, so depending on your sweetness preference, add some dates. You could also throw in ½ a banana to sweeten it up a bit instead of dates if you like that flavor.
Items you can prep ahead (optional)
- Peel and chop the citrus
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste and add more sweeter if you’d like (see note).
Notes
Substitutions:
- No grapefruit? Use 2 oranges instead.
- Use any frozen fruit in place of raspberries (blueberries, pineapple, etc…)
- Use chia seeds in place of hemp seeds.
Storage:
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Leftovers + Repurposing:
- Give the smoothie a stir and drink up! Stir in granola or nuts to add crunch.
