Yogurt Berry Smoothie
Today I’ve got a creamy berry smoothie recipe and a fantastic healthy giveaway to share! We love our morning smoothies. After doctoring them up with fresh fruit and superfoods, I always feel energized to focus on healthy living throughout the day.
I’ve been trying to stay on a healthy track ever since January.
I have to admit, some of the comfort foods we like to share make that a little bit difficult. We try to have a little splurge, then send the rest of our homemade treats off to friends and neighbors… no complaints from them.
Yet as you know, when life gets hectic, healthy eating and exercise seem to be the two first things to fall off the wagon.
A couple months back I started searching for a Superfood Blend to add to our daily routine. I wanted to give everyone in the family a shot of superfoods first thing in the morning, to insure we all had a healthy dose of fruits, veggies, vitamins, and minerals.
I tried several products I found online. Some were ridiculously expensive for what they offered, therefore not worth the money in the long run. Others were just too hard to swallow.
If you’ve ever “taken greens” you know exactly what I’m taking about. Dense superfood powders (made from a base of seaweed and wheat grass) mixed with water often turn into a gritty mud-like solution that is difficult to choke down.
After asking my Instagram friends about they’re experiences with green powders, someone recommended I try Greens Plus. I’m so glad that I did!
Greens Plus is a Superfood Blend made with:
- Raw Green Foods
- Super Fruits
- Sea Vegetables
- Herbal Extracts
- Probiotics
- Algea Calcium
- Vitamins
It is also soy free, diary free, gluten free and non-gmo.
Greens Plus was originally created by Sam Graci to help his sister-in-law Lani Deauville with her long list of intense health problems.
After working on the formula for taste, Lani began taking Sam’s green drink and experienced amazing improvements in her overall health and life-style. So much so, they started a company to improve the health of their friends and family. Since then Greens Plus has received numerous awards for quality and effectiveness, and is now available internationally.
Greens Plus is Formulated to Help Increase:
- Energy
- Immunity
- Digestion
- Alkilinity
- Heart Health
- Antiaging
- and is a Natural Detox
It comes in several flavor options as well as bars!
Dan and I have both noticed a significant increase in our energy levels since we started taking Greens Plus. And even though tummy bugs and flu have been circulating in our area, our family has been germ free. I feel like our immune systems have an extra layer of protection!
And the taste?
My favorite is the Advanced Multi Wild Berry Superfood Blend. It is smoother than most green drinks, with a mild flavor that ends with a hint of berry.
I can easily drink it mixed with just water.
However, it’s also great to add to your morning smoothie.
We’ve been adding Greens Plus to our favorite berry smoothie recipe and the kids don’t even realize it’s in there. On days we don’t make them smoothies for breakfast, we pack Greens Plus bars in their lunch boxes to insure they’re getting their daily boost of superfoods.
Today I’m sharing my favorite classic berry smoothie recipe with a scoop of Greens Plus to make it power-packed, and an incredible Greens Plus Giveaway.

I sneak spinach into my little boy’s smoothies. This sounds like a great product!!
I’ve never tried one but would love to see if it would help my energy levels and immune system.
I am very excited to hear about Greens Plus’ products. I’m always looking for ways to incorporate healthier foods into my famiky, especially my daughter who rejects all green food. This sounds perfect for her, especially in the smoothies I already sneak veggies into!
I would like to try greens for healthy lifestyle.
I haven’t tried this product yet but would love too!
I used super green algae about twenty years ago. I felt great but I couldn’t afford it.

I have tried Green Vibrance, (with great results) but would love to try this product line!! I love putting the green powder in smoothies for the entire family, and the best part is the kiddo doesn’t even know its there! :)
We love making smoothies this sounds like a healthy option to sneak some “greens” into my families diet.
I can’t wait to try this! I’ve always used fresh greens but will be traveling this week so this will be a perfect time to try powdered green!!

I’ve used the superfood chocolate mixed w milk, in a smoothie, and in pancake mix. Interested in trying these products!
I make protein shakes every morning with vanilla protein powder, almond milk, plain yogurt, banana, strawberries, flaxseed oil, and chia seeds! I would love to try substituting Greens Wild berry superfood for my regular protein powder.
I have not tried them, but would love to. I use organic spinach, kale, etc. Switch up the greens I use. Smoothie looks great.
love to win.
I would love to try this product line! Especially the smoothie idea!! My son will not eat any vegetables what so ever, so I love the idea of being able to hide it in a smoothie and the awesome benefits of the product!
I have never tried this product but I am striving to eat as healthy as possible and eliminate all processed foods. This would fit in perfectly with my plan. I would start using in smoothies with homemade yogurt
Both my son and me suffer from very low energy, so this would be awesome if I won. We would both be trying this in no time flat!
What a wonderful giveaway!
I love trying new things. Trying to find things that are cost effective, kid friendly and tasty is so hard sometimes.
I would love to try this. I would definitely add it to my smoothies. I would also love to try the bars. Sounds like a great way to up the family’s nutrition without complaints!
I would love this. I am making smoothies for my family, as well as the girl across the street who thinks she hates veggies. I sneak them into dinner all the time and she eats them unaware. We could all use the extra boost. =)
I love all the greens plus products! I use them in all sorts of ways. I have even gotten some friends to start using the greens plus line. We use them in smoothed, waffles, bagels, and energy bites! Thanks so much for having a wonderful product!
Do powdered forms of greens provide more nutrition than the actual vegetables? I’m assuming they’re more concentrated…I’d be curious if my kids liked this better than the things we usually put in our smoothies.
We love smoothies, and I would love to try the powdered greens. Although I’ve used spinach in smoothies before and really enoyed it, the powdered greens look like they contain a lot of healthy stuff that would be so much easier to add to a smoothie in powdered form.
I’ve never tried but would love to add berries in it!
Pear smoothie! Keep it green :)
I love super foods in my shakes on a daily basis. I think it adds a lot of vitamins and essentials that our bodies need and we forget that.
I think it would definitely kick up my smoothies for my workout and give me a boost of energy.
I have never tried anything like this, but it would be a great addition to my post-run recovery drink!
I haven’t tried this specific line of products. However, I love smoothies and that fact they are healthy and filling. Keeping my fingers crossed that I win this giveaway!
I’ve never tried one of these products, but the granola bars look great!

Nope – never tried one before
I’ve been searching for something like this to do a cleanse /detox a few times a year. Would love to try it in smoothies & homemade ice pops for my family. Looks like a fabulous product! I love the fact that it’s non-GMO!
I love using superfoods like chia seeds and adding them to anything like oatmeal, yogurt, and smoothies. I’m a dancer and so having healthy, fast, easy, and digestible meals is a huge factor that goes into my meal planning. Green+ products would be perfect!
I would love to try some for my smoothies.
Just got a new mixer and ready to make smoothies!
I have never tried this brand, but it sounds great. Others I’ve tried haven’t had the most appealing taste.
I have never tried a product like this before but they sound awesome!

Smoothie looks yummy. Haven’t tried any superfood product before but have been dealing with some immune issues. Maybe this would help!
I might try to make some green brownies!
Who couldn’t use an easy way to get more good stuff in our diets. I would love to add it to a fruit smoothie with a little vegan protein powder.
