Most people dont think to try beans in a smoothie. I started using navy beans and great northern beans in my morning smoothies to get a good fiber blast coupled with a scoop of protein,

A great smoothie that I make each morning is 1/2 cup navy beans, scoop of vanilla protein powder, medium pear, teaspoon of bee pollen, TBS of chia seeds with almond milk. I sprinkle some cinnamon and its delish!!

Navy beans and chic peas are great additions to a smoothie that you wont even notice in there. Chic peas should be considered a super food as far as im concerned.
Protein, potassium and fiber all inside that little fella.

    Never thought of this. Do they change the taste or texture?

    Maybe try adzuki beans too? They're used to make a sweet paste used in Chinese desserts/sweet dim sum.
