Instructions
To Make Freezer Smoothie Packs: Place the smoothie ingredients in a reusable, freezer-safe, zip-top bag. Seal, label, and place in the freezer for up to 3 months. Each smoothie pack makes enough for 2 smoothies.
How To Prepare Frozen Smoothies: Place all of the contents of a bag in a blender along with 3/4 cup to 1-1/4 cup milk of choice and 1/2 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt, kefir, or additional milk.
To make dairy-free, vegan, Whole30, or Paleo smoothies, use a dairy-free yogurt in place of the Greek yogurt, or omit the yogurt completely and add 1-1/4 cup to 1-3/4 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk of choice total instead of the 3/4 cup to 1-1/4 cup of milk.
For nut free, use a non-nut based milk and use raw pumpkin seeds in place of Brazil nuts.
If you prefer a sweeter tasting smoothie, feel free to add your favorite natural sweetener, such as honey or maple syrup.
