It’s time for a 31 Day Smoothie Challenge! We are in the 8th challenge of the Happy Healthy Mama Healthy Year Challenge, and I think this one is going to be the most fun. We are going to replace one meal a day with a delicious, nutrient-dense smoothie. What do you think?!
Why a Smoothie Challenge?
There are a number of reasons you might want to take part in a smoothie challenge. Remember, we are talking about replacing one meal a day, most likely breakfast or lunch, with a smoothie. Here are some great reasons do take part in a smoothie challenge:
- Smoothies are an excellent way to add a wide variety of nutrients to your diet. You can use a lot of different plants in a smoothie including fruits, vegetables, seeds, nuts, and whole grains. Plant power!
- If you have trouble eating the recommended amount of fresh fruits and vegetables in a day, smoothies can help.
- Smoothies make healthy eating easier. No cooking involved, just some quick blending and you have a complete, nutritious, balanced meal.
- Smoothies provide built-in portion control. If you have a problem with overeating, replacing a meal with a smoothie can help!
- The right smoothies (not the kind loaded with sugar!) can fight inflammation and help you feel great.
I want to make participating in the smoothie challenge as easy as possible, so I’ve created 31 different smoothie recipes for you! Each week of this challenge, I will email you 7 new, nutritious smoothie recipes along with a grocery list. This is, of course, totally free to you. You’ll be armed with everything you need to start the challenge right away. If you subscribe to my newsletter, you should have already received this information and the recipes. If not, you can join right now by clicking the image below!
The smoothies that I created for you are designed to be complete meals.
Each 31 Day Smoothie Challenge Smoothie:
- Is between 350-450 calories
- Has 4+ servings of fruits and vegetables
- Has no added sugars
- Is totally plant-based (vegan)
- Has at least, often more than, 10 grams of protein
- Is made with only whole food ingredients–NO protein powders
You can expect to eat around 20 different plant foods in a week just by taking place in the challenge! Variety is an important key to building a strong immune system and keeping your body healthy. If you’ve struggled with keeping your healthy eating on track, this 31 Day Smoothie Challenge is a great jumping point to help you!
You can START this challenge ANY time, even after the first time we run this challenge. Everything is right here for you to get started. All of the recipes and grocery lists are in an instant download below.

Thank you for sharing your recipes. I look forward to giving them a try.
You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy them, Simone. 🙂
Hi I managed to download the 1st wks routine and was just wondering if Im suppose to get the other weeks as well.
Week 2 will go out tomorrow, Sunday, August 7th. 🙂
I started today and excited for this challenge. I typically use smoothies as a snack or with food so I was pleasantly surprised the 1st one got me through the morning of getting everyone ready and my body pump class. I’m most excited about getting more of a variety of fruits and veggies throughout the week. Oh and I love, love, love the grocery list! Thanks for taking the extra step to do that!
You’re welcome, Heather!
I’m the same way in that I rarely have just a smoothie for a meal so this is new to me. One of the main reasons I wanted to do this was to retrain myself in the fine art of portion control. I’ve been overeating this summer. 🙁 The variety of fruits and vegetables is a bonus, too.
I’ll look forward to your email! I still make your sweet potato shake/smoothie. Just had one yesterday! I absolutely love it!!
Were you already subscribed? If so, you should have got the email Sunday night. Check your spam box if you didn’t get it. If you weren’t already subscribed, you should have gotten an instant download when you entered your email. Let me know if you didn’t get the smoothie recipes! 🙂
Hi Maryea,
Yes, I am subscribed and usually get your newsletter in my email as well as when you repsond–but I don’t have any recent ones. And not in spam. Should I just try and re subscribe?
First let me double check that you are on my list. If I find you there I’ll have to figure out why you aren’t getting it! I’ll report back. 🙂
So I looked and you are subscribed. It says you got the email on Sunday, but didn’t open it. I’ll go ahead and just email you the smoothie recipes. Maybe you accidentally deleted it or something? No worries! Let me know if you don’t get my newsletter this coming Sunday.
I received the smoothie challenge but the last 4 days of week 5 aren’t there. It stops after day 3 ☹️
Oh that’s strange! I will look into this and see what’s up.
