Top 10 Green Smoothie Recipes: International Green Smoothie Day
Today (15th August) is Officially International Green Smoothie Day. So what could be better than sharing my top 10 green smoothie recipes with you.
If you’ve never had a green smoothie before, you’ve been missing out! There is a reason this incredible drink has become as popular as it has. Once you start drinking a daily green smoothie, you will have so much energy and feel amazing. It’s much easier to lose weight and recover from major health problems (as I did) when you ensure you get your daily dose of green smoothies.
These 10 recipes are some of the most popular green smoothie recipes in the world. Give this miracle drink a try today and reap the benefits for yourself.

Hi, I'm Katherine, thanks for stopping by. I healed myself of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and lost 56 pounds. I now have loads of energy for my baby girl and enjoy walks on the beach with my family. I am passionate about helping you improve your health and reach your ideal weight. I invented Green Thickies to provide a complete meal drink for busy people who care about their health.
Mmmm wow, every smoothie looks so great, Katherine! Thanks for including me in your round up ;)
Thank you! And thank you for creating such a gorgeous smoothie. I adore your recipe photos, they are mouth watering! I want to make literally everything you share!
Thanks so much for including my “Smooth Operator” in your list, Katherine! Every one of these smoothies looks delicious. Can’t wait to try out so many more green drinks! :)
No Problem, thanks so much for allowing me to share such a gorgeous recipe. I love your website and recipes! Many thanks and Happy Green Smoothie drinking.
Great smoothies! Love all the ideas you’ve collected!
Stopping by from Fresh Food Wednesday (I posted a Watermelon and Cucumber Smoothie)
Pinned.
Amber @ The Cook’s Sister
Thank you Amber. That’s funny I had already found your recipe and had just left a comment saying how refreshing it sounded. Yum!
Hi Katherine,
This is such a great post! Happy International Green Smoothie Day! I pinned all these gorgeous green thickies. :-)
Thanks for sharing with us on AFW. Such a great collection of smoothie recipes.
Be Well,
–Amber
Hi Amber
Happy Green Smoothie Day to you too! Thank you so much for pinning ALL of these recipes. I really appreciate it and I’m sure the other bloggers will really appreciate it too. They are absolutely gorgeous green smoothies and all unique. This morning I had the Key Lime Pie which was absolutely gorgeous. I couldn’t get enough of this one! I also had smooth operator which included nutritional yeast which I’ve never had in a smoothie before but it tasted amazing. It just made the smoothie taste so wholesome and balanced. The Basic Green Smoothie was extremely refreshing, zingy and not overly sweet so good on a hot summers day (like today in the UK, yay!) And I also had the healthy limeade smoothie. This is a non sweet green smoothie so perfect if you’re avoiding fruit. It reminded me of the smoothie I drank all the way through my pregnancy, tangy and fresh. Yum!
The 15th was my bday, what a great day to celebrate with green! I love green smoothies and green juice! Thanks for sharing!! My name is Cindy and I blog over at Vegetarianmamma.com I wanted to invite you to link up your recipe at our Gluten Free Fridays Recipe Link up party! It happens every Friday and we’d love to have you join us with some of your awesome recipes or information like this!! You can find this week’s link up here: http://vegetarianmamma.com/gluten-free-friday-recipe-link-up-1/
Thanks,

Hi Cindy, Happy Birthday. Yes what a great day to have your birthday on Green Smoothie Day. Thank you for inviting me over to Gluten Free Fridays. It sounds great. I’ll come over now and have a look. Many thanks for visiting Green Thickies.
Tweeted and pinned your entry to our “gluten free fridays” board on Pinterest! :) Thanks for entering your goodness!
Thank you so much Cindy. That’s so kind of you. Great blog hop!
I usually like fruity smoothies but i think i can get on board with a few of these smoothies… They don’t looks as scary…hehe
That’s the beauty of a green smoothie, they are fruity, taste fruity and if you can get over the green colour you won’t even notice they aren’t a fruit smoothie. Try adding black berries to your smoothie to make it purple and get the benefit of the greens too.
happy green smoothie day! that one with the black berries in it looks divine! and now that the black berries are showing up on all the bushes in my neighborhood, it gives me a good excuse to try it out :)
thank you for taking the time to link up with us at the Wednesday Fresh Foods Blog Hop! We hope to see you again this Wednesday with more fantastic seasonal & real food posts :) xo, kristy
Hi Kirsty. Ooo I wonder if blackberries are popping up around here too. I’ll have to have a look around and see if I can find any good places to go and pick them. That smoothie is such a lovely colour isn’t it.
Thank you for your comment and I look forward to another Fresh Foods Blog Hop.
Your smoothies like they taste as good as they are for you. Thank you so much for sharing them on foodie friday. Glad to have as part of our health conscious community.
Thank you. I do really hope people enjoy these smoothies as well as get the health benefits. Thank you for visiting Green Thickies. It’s great to be part of Foodie Friday.
Hi Katherine, I would like to feature this post on Allergy Free Wednesday this week, let me know if you get a link back in your post!
Hi Tessa. That’s so kind of you, thank you so much for featuring this post on Allergy Free Wednesdays. I will let you know if I get a link back.
What a great idea for a blog! I am a smoothie drinker too. I found your blog via My Sweet and Savory’s Meatless Monday hop. I’m having one this week too if you’d like to link this fabulous post up there , too: http://jessica-healthymommyhealthybaby.blogspot.com/2012/08/meatless-monday-easy-old-bay-style.html. I hope to see you there! So glad I found your blog ;)
Thank you Jessica. That’s great you drink smoothies. They are so good for you and your baby too. My baby loves green smoothies. I have headed over to your blog to link up. Many thanks for inviting me.
Thank you so much for sharing your green smoothies with us over at Gluten Free Fridays. I really do appreciate you linking up. And I really do appreciate you taking the time to post these great smoothies! I’ve been a slacker the past couple of weeks on my juicing and smoothie making, so maybe these new recipes will give me the extra push I need:). Thanks again Katherine
Hi Meghan, no problems, thank you for hosting such a great blog hop. I always found juicing a lot harder and more expensive but I just make a massive batch of smoothies for the day and I’m sorted then. I hope you find a recipe you like. I add oats to most of my recipes (green thickies) so they fill me up enough to get me through the morning without needing anything else to eat.
All of these look delicious! Thanks for the round-up. I love all of the new ideas. Check out one of my favorite recipes for green smoothies that I posted here…
http://www.hungryhealthygirl.com/recipes/?recipe_id=6030654
Thank you Kim. Your recipes looks lovely. I’ve never actually tried a green smoothie with vanilla milk but I’m really going to have to as I adore vanilla in everything. Many thanks for visiting Green Thickies.
This is a great round up of fabulous recipes. And from so many of the blogs I love. I drink the same green smoothie every morning, so it’s nice to get a little inspiration. The Key Lime Pie one looks awesome! Thanks for sharing all these yummy recipes :)
Yes these are some great recipes from some of my favourite blogs too. It’s funny I drank the same green smoothie for 6 months after my baby was born. That’s why I love this blog as it gives me inspiration to vary my own diet. You should try the key lime pie. It’s absolutely gorgeous. It was gone far too quickly. I’m going to have to make a green thickie version of that one I think. Thank you so much for visiting.
What a delicious choice of green smoothies! I love the unique flavour combinations on offer – especially the key lime!
Hi April, thank you! Yes I couldn’t agree more about the key lime pie smoothie. I loved this smoothie so much I just turned it into a green thickie. http://www.greenthickies.com/healthy-key-lime-pie-smoothie
Hi Katherine,
What a great collection of Smoothies, I want to try them all. Hope you have a great holiday weekend and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!
Miz Helen

I just started drinking “green” smoothies a couple of months ago and now I Love them. My favorite has Kale, apples, lime juice, and freshly squeezed orange juice. It’s so Yummy!!!
Hi Tiffany, I’m so glad you’ve discovered green smoothies and love them. They are one of the best things we can do for our health. That smoothie sounds gorgeous. I love using freshly squeezed orange juice in green smoothies. It gives it a much nicer taste.
Just love these recipes! Any chance i can use one or two of them on my site – with a link of course!! The recipes would go under http://smoothiepassion.com/smoothie-recipes/ Keep up the great work, Brett xx
