Recipe Notes
Smoothies are SO easy to throw together! Here’s everything you need to know (which isn’t much) about this keto berry smoothie:
Ingredient Notes
Making a low carb blueberry smoothie is possible with a smart mix of ingredients. Add more protein (or a vegan source of protein) with a tablespoon of hemp seeds or almond butter.
Fruit – When making smoothies, it’s important to opt for low carb fruits (primarily berries!) and measure the quantity to keep your carb count down (it’s easy to overboard here!)
Blueberries are higher in carbs than other berries (10g per 1/2 cup), so if you’d like to cut the carbs more, opt for a different berry (such as keto strawberry smoothie)!
Protein powder – Keto protein powder is an awesome way to add protein and sweetness to recipes, with hardly any carbs. Make sure you like the flavor of your protein powder, as it will make or break this keto protein shake!
Personal preference — I can’t stand the taste of pea protein powder (which is included in most plant-based protein powders) — I much prefer vanilla-flavored whey protein powder.
Milk – I switch between light almond and coconut keto milk.
Additional ingredients – Unsweetened shredded coconut adds healthy fats and satiating power, while mild-tasting keto vegetables are easy to sneak in for an extra dose of greens. I like to store spinach and kale in the freezer to make this a low carb green smoothie!
Orange extract adds that little something extra.
Recipe Variations
This low carb blueberry smoothie is oh-so-easy to customize! Add whatever twist you’re feeling, here are a few ideas:
- Add keto Greek yogurt into the mix. Originally, I made this smoothie with Greek yogurt but updated the recipe as blueberries and Greek yogurt add carbs to the equations. That said, these 2 ingredients go together SO WELL! So if it works with your meal plan, go for it!
- Turn this into a low carb breakfast smoothie bowl by adding less liquid and more ice and/or avocado. Top with some freshly sliced fruit and keto granola, and eat with a spoon!
- Add nut butter or keto nuts. Not only will they make your low carb blueberry smoothie extra creamy, but the fat will help to keep you full longer.

Lindsey's Tips
- Avocados. Go for haas! They’re higher in fat, creamier and WAY more delicious than regular (sorry Florida ?).
- Milk. I swap between unsweetened light almond or coconut milk.
- Nutritional information was calculated using ISO Pure Vanilla Protein Powder (0g carbs/serving), and does include the optional spinach:
