Equipment Needed

NutriBullet Smoothie Making Tools
NutriBullet Smoothie Making Tools

A standard blender is all that is required to make these NutriBullet smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.

If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend the higher-end full-sized NutriBullet Smart Touch that can process larger loads more efficiently.

For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.


How To Make The Creamy Green Strawberry Dream Smoothie

The NutriBullet Creamy Green Strawberry Dream smoothie is very easy to make:

  • Step 1: Place baby spinach, banana, strawberries, almond milk, coconut water, and rolled oats into a blender and secure the lid.
  • Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
  • Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
  • Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.

Recipe Tips And Substitutions

For ease of use, we recommend peeling and slicing a number of bananas, putting them in a freezer bag, and storing them in your freezer for quick access.

If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.

Coconut milk or soy milk can be substituted for the almond milk and still keep this delicious smoothie dairy-free.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions

Are Nutribullet blenders easy to use?

Nutribullet blenders are designed for ease of use. With a compact design and simple mechanism, users typically just need to fill the blending cup with ingredients, twist on the blade attachment, and press or twist the cup onto the base to blend. Cleaning is also straightforward, as many parts are dishwasher safe.

Why is coconut water so healthy?

Coconut water is lauded for its health benefits primarily due to its high electrolyte content, especially potassium, which is crucial for maintaining fluid balance and supporting heart health.

Coconut water also contains various vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, and has been linked to benefits like reduced blood pressure and improved exercise performance.
