These 2-ingredient blueberry smoothie bites are easy to make and wildly nutritious.
White beans are full of protein, fiber and a slew of other nutritional benefits. These include potassium and iron; thiamine for a boost to your cognitive abilities; heart-supporting folate and magnesium, and copper to fight inflammation.
How Healthy are Blueberries?
Meanwhile, blueberries are one of the most nutritious foods on the planet. They are high in antioxidants and great for weight-loss. Blueberries also support brain health, reduce inflammation, ease digestion and contribute to heart health.
Therefore, these two are the perfect match to create these energizing blueberry smoothie bites!
I choose to use organic canned beans though I’m sure freshly cooked beans would work as well.
If you use canned, be sure to use organic, to be sure the beans don’t have additional ingredients. And I choose unsalted so I can control the sodium.
I hope you enjoy my recipes using white beans, they really are such a perfect white palate for nutritious easy recipe.

2-Ingredient Blueberry Smoothie Bites
These blueberry smoothie bites are an incredible snack. Blueberries are super high in anti-oxidants, paired with high-protein white beans, we have a work-out snack that will help you power through your day.
Ingredients
- 1 can (15oz/425gms) white beans (navy beans, organic & precooked - I have used Eden and Whole Foods 365 brand)
- 1 cup blueberries
Instructions
- Rinse the white beans, and wash the berries, and pop them both in the blender.
- Blend up until creamy. Add some water if your blender asks you to loosen it up. (Yes, my blender (Blendtec - Designer series) talks to me, haha!)
- Pour into molds or mini cupcakes papers, freeze an hour (or longer depending on your freezer temperature) and then eat! Keep frozen until ready to eat, and ours lasted at least 3 days.
