Summer is here which means it’s smoothie time! Smoothies are cool and refreshing on a beautiful, hot summer’s day. This blueberry pie smoothie recipe has all the delicious flavours of blueberry pie packed into a blended drink. Plus the purple colour is beautiful.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: not only are smoothies delicious, refreshing, and filling but they are also perfect for people with physical disabilities.
Here’s why:
- Smoothies are a super quick and easy way to prepare a complete, filling meal (filled with protein, fruit, vegetables, fibre, and healthy fats).
- They are high in calcium which is crucial for people with disabilities who have low bone density.
- You can pack them with extra protein and calories if you are healing from a pressure wound.
- They’re a great way to sneak in extra fruit and veggies.
- They don’t take a lot of time or energy to make, which makes them a great option for days when you’re in pain or extra fatigued.
- Smoothies are versatile – there are ENDLESS flavour combos so you can make them everyday and never get bored!
- They’re also made with affordable ingredients (hello frozen fruit!).

How to Prep Smoothies in Advance
If mornings are tight for you and you don’t have time to make a smoothie from scratch, here’s what you can do to save time and prep all or part of it in advance:
- Make your smoothie the night before. The ingredients may separate a bit the next morning and it won’t taste as fresh but give it a good stir and it will still taste pretty good. Store it in a flask like this one.
- Portion out the ingredients in containers the night before so all you have to do in the morning is pour everything into the blender (this is the blender that I use – it’s a great investment!). For example, portion out the rolled oats and yogurt in separate containers (like these ones), and place 1 cup of blueberries in a freezer-friendly bag.
- Make a double batch of smoothie in the morning to last you for breakfast the next day.
This Blueberry Pie Smoothie is:
- A good source of fibre (from the blueberries and oats – the Bob’s Red Mill Rolled Oats are perfect for this smoothie!)
- High in protein (from the Greek yogurt)
- A great source of calcium (from the yogurt and milk)
- A filling breakfast or snack
- Vegetarian
- Easy and quick to make
- Packed with antioxidants (from the blueberries)
- Five ingredients
- DELICIOUS
