Veggies over everything! At least that’s what I try to tell myself DAILY. It’s totally a mind thing. I just heard a guy in line at the bagel shop say that he avoids veggies at all cost. I laughed and shared with him some fun ways to make it easier such as: spiralized zucchini noodles, baked parsnip chips, riced cauliflower, and fresh salsa. And it just doesn’t get any easier than smoothies. Just toss them in and blend.
Smoothie King has a line of Veggie Blend Smoothies which include their newest addition, the Veggie Avocado Pineapple Smoothie! It’s loaded with yummy fruits and vegetables and it’s smooth, creamy, and absolutely delicious! Avocado and pineapple make the perfect pair—and a 20 oz smoothie is a great source of iron and vitamin A, C, and B, it has 6 grams of protein. It will also keep you full longer, replenish electrolytes, and keep you hydrated.

NEW! Veggie Avocado Pineapple
Don’t these blends just sound so tropical! Just take me RIGHT NOW to the islands as I sip on my Veggie Avocado Pineapple Smoothie as I relax in a hammock while getting kissed by the sun. OK…I’m back…to reality.
I’ll be honest, I just started eating avocado a few years ago and I’ve been hooked ever since. Here are a few fun facts about the avocado and why you may want to incorporate them into your diet and your life:
- They have over 20 vitamins and minerals.
- You can swap them with mayonnaise! Trust me, I’ve tried! So good!
- They are great for skin and hair.
- Have an apple or banana near? They’ll ripen quicker if you place them in a bag together.
- They are bomb-diggity in chicken or tuna salad.
- They are low in sugar.
- Guacamole! Just throw in those veggies. BOOM! Enough said.
- They are delicious in smoothies! Obviously!
So shameless…

What are some of your favorite ways to incorporate veggies?
Nice! That looks super tasty and I bet the avocado adds creaminess too!
I find that you can also throw some spinach in a smoothie without compromising the taste – especially if you have some extra sweet fruits to balance the flavour, like frozen cherries plus a bit of pure vanilla extract.
And congrats on your magazine spread – so exciting! Your words, “go at your own pace, and you’ll win” we’re inspiring to me. I’m sure I’ll draw on that mantra in challenging runs (and times!).
Thank you so much, Katherine for the kind words!!! I’m really excited and cannot believe it…still!
I love spinach in my smoothies. Kale…not so much. The avocado + pineapple smoothie is really a winner! Especially with the other ingredients.
