23 Dairy-Free Smoothies that Taste Like Milkshakes

Have I talked about our picky-eater of a kiddo? Kidding, kidding – I know I’ve mentioned it. This is about the 618th time I’ve mentioned it, actually. At least.

We’re still working on getting fruits, vegetables, and just about any healthy things into that belly, and recently, I’ve been on a mission: come up with a smoothie recipe that tastes, to her, like a milkshake. Because she’ll do milkshakes.

Chocolate, vanilla, anything milkshake-y. I just want something that’s actually somewhat healthy – and one that she will consistently like and drink.

But with this round-up, I’m being a little bit selfish too. Because while she can eat dairy, I can’t. And because I usually end up drinking the smoothies I make for her, I set out to find, specifically, non-dairy smoothie recipes that taste like milkshakes (or ones that are easily made dairy-free). So I asked my blogger friends and poked around a little, and, without further ado, here are 23 of them! Rich, decadent, satisfying, and vegan. And hopefully irresistible to a picky kid. Wish me luck!
