Smoothie making tips
Try these tips to start perfecting your smoothie making skills.
Find a blender you like (this sounds silly, but is super important for you to actually use it!). Here are a few options I've found that get great reviews.
Ninja: offers a variety of both single batch and larger options for smoothie making.
Blendjet: small, portable and perfect for single batch smoothies.
Vitamix: wonderful, but super expensive, so if you have the budget it's well worth it.
Pre-portion and freeze your smoothie ingredients ahead of time. This will make your smoothie making process much quicker because all you have to do is throw them in your blender and mix.
Build a balanced smoothie by choosing a protein, fruit/veggie and healthy fat. Not only do all these ingredients make for a delicious combination, but they also help to keep you full for longer.
Practice makes perfect. Play around with different combinations and serving amounts in your smoothie (the recipe is just a guideline), you might like more blueberries or less fluid, it's up to you!
Top it off. Add on additional nutrient-dense ingredients like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or protein powder.
