How to Prep Week of Smoothie Freezer Packs

Ingredients

  1. 10 cups spinach or baby kale
    2 1/2 bananas
    2 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
    2 1/2 cups mango (I used frozen)
    1 1/4 ripe avocados

Directions

  1. Grab five freezer-safe sealable plastic bags and divide the ingredients between them. Add: 2 cups of greens, 1/2 a banana (sliced), 1/4 cup blueberries, 1/4 cup mango, and 1/4 avocado.
  2. Close them up and feel free to write any notes on the bag such as the date or ingredients you want to add later, then place them in the freezer.
  3. When you're ready to make your smoothie, empty the contents of the freezer pack into your blender, add the extra ingredients like water or coconut water, almond or soy milk, protein powder, flaxmeal, chia seeds, cinnamon, beans, tofu, or whatever you please. Blend it up and enjoy!
