Chocolate Covered Blueberry Smoothie: January 10th.

If you thought 'that sounds weird', you'd be forgiven. | SPG 31 Days of Smoothies


Yep. Yep, it's still January. But only January 10th, so those bags of candy your co-worker got you for the holidays that you would normally not touch on a Wednesday in April all of a sudden become incredibly appealing and you want to eat it all. Because...winter. And winter has that power to make you eat all the things.

Unfortunately, chocolate covered blueberries are one of those things, and they get a bad rap. This is in the holiday viewpoint of "let's just cover everything in chocolate and see where it goes", crossed with "it's a fruit, right? So it's healthy." In which case, the answer to both is a resounding "NO" and typically, you'll find those bags AFTER the holidays on the 'free for all' table in your office. You know the one I'm talking about. The one covered with Mary Janes and Bit o' Honeys after Halloween. The Island of Misfit Candies, so to speak.

Fortunately, this smoothie is not that. It has the hints of gorgeous, deep chocolate and antioxidant-powered blueberry, but without the "what DID I just eat and WHY?" feel to it.


Not that I'm judging. I can only speak of the 'free for all' table cuz I know all too much about it...


Chocolate Covered Blueberry Smoothie

  • 1 cup milk of choice

  • 1 serving protein powder of choice

  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

  • 2 tablespoons raw cacao or cocoa powder

  • 1-2 pitted Medjool dates (or 2-4 Deglet dates): Choose your sweetness level!

  • Tiny pinch of salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (OPTIONAL)


Make It:

  • Blend it until smooth. Sorry for the anticlimactic moment.


I mean, look at this thing. I put it in one of my all-time favorite glasses, which is as close to a 'major award' as I can get. It was a giveaway from my 3rd half-marathon, the sponsor was (clearly) a local brewery, and I ran it in San Diego (still my favorite). How can you not smile at winter with a color like that and such a memory?



Here's to all of the smoothies and all of your favorite glasses!
