Blueberry-cashew smoothie 

It features a surprising veggie: cauliflower.

“Don’t be afraid to add unexpected ingredients to your smoothies,” says New York City-based recipe developer Julia Gartland. “You won’t be able to taste it but cauliflower, for example, creates a thick texture and adds extra nutrients.” Another favorite Gartland cites is spirulina: “It has more iron than spinach and even adds some protein.”
