For easier blending, always add liquids first, followed by soft ingredients, then powders, and finally frozen items.
02 -
To save time, pre-portion all dry ingredients (protein powder, chia, flax, cinnamon) into small bags or containers the night before.
03 -
Feel free to swap unsweetened almond milk for coconut milk or oat milk, and spinach for kale, adjusting liquid as needed for desired consistency.
04 -
While best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftover smoothie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Stir well before consuming.
