Tips & tricks
- A well-balanced smoothie is a great way to “drink your salad” in the morning, so don’t hold on to your greens. Add and add all that you want.
- It is effortless to make excellent and tasty smoothies. But don’t forget that it can quickly become a complete meal. So, try to balance the calorie amount and don’t overdo it.
- When my kids were young, I gave them this vegan smoothie, but they drank it in colorful sippy cups. So, give them their favorite smoothie in colorful, fun cups if you have young kids.
- When buying superfoods and vegan proteins, always read the ingredients. Buy stuff with no artificial ingredients or added sugar.
- How to make a creamy smoothie: first, I add the liquid to the blender; then, I add the greens, then the frozen fruit, and finally, the superfoods and fats.
- Here are other smoothie recipes that I love: pink beet smoothie, tropical smoothie bowl, carrot cake smoothie, and green juice.
Here is an important tip, TASTE your smoothie while it is in the blender. This way, you can adjust the flavor easier.

Notes
How to store a smoothie:
- Refrigerate it: If you want to drink your smoothie within a day or two, you can refrigerate it. Pour the smoothie into an airtight container and store it in the fridge. When you’re ready to drink it, please give it a good shake or stir to recombine the ingredients, as they may have separated while in the fridge.
- Freeze it: If you want to store your smoothie for longer than a few days, you can freeze it. Pour the smoothie into an airtight container and place it in the freezer. When you’re ready to drink it, thaw it in the fridge or at room temperature until it reaches your desired consistency. You may need to give it a good stir or blend it again before drinking.
- Make single-serving smoothie packs: Another option is to portion the smoothie ingredients into individual servings and store them in the freezer. When you’re ready to make a smoothie, grab a serving from the freezer, add your liquid base, and blend.
