As someone who is always on the go, my diet has often come second to work.
Since starting a healthier diet, eating regular meals has been my one big change. I used to always skip breakfast and never snack, and that always backfired- I’d be starving my dinner time and I’d overeat, which would then leave me full come the next day.
Luckily, a secret trick has helped me stick to a healthy diet without skipping meals and keeping my energy levels up- smoothies!
What is a smoothie?
A smoothie is a drink made up of blended fruits, vegetables, and a liquid base. These are often juice, milk, or water. They are a filling and nutritious breakfast option or something to snack on between meals. It’s also a popular meal option for many weight loss plans, thanks to the thick texture and high water content.
The beauty of a smoothie is that it can easily be customized in a plethora of ways and requires nothing but a simple blender to prepare.
How to make a healthy smoothie?
The Ingredients.
- Liquid– Milk, water, or fruit juice.
- Frozen element– Ice or frozen fruit are the most popular, but frozen yogurt or ice cream can also be added.
- Sweeteners– If you don’t add frozen fruit, you would use maple syrup, honey, or even simple syrup.
- Mix-ins– Cocoa powder, protein powder, coconut flakes, nuts, seeds, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese… the possibilities are endless!
The Instructions.
In a high speed add all your smoothie ingredients and blend until smooth. Once smooth, transfer into a tall glass or smoothie bottle and enjoy immediately.
What are the healthiest things to put into smoothies?
For many people, smoothies are a meal in itself. Using a combination of fiber, protein, and healthy fats will ensure you remain fuller for longer. Here are some healthy ideas to add to your smoothie.
- Fruit– Fresh or frozen fruit. Berries, pineapple, apples, bananas, mango, coconut and dates.
- Vegetables– Spinach, kale, carrots, and even frozen cauliflower add extra nutrients, color, and barely add any flavors.
- Nuts and seeds– Peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds. Nut butters and seed butters are also fantastic, especially peanut butter or almond butter.
- Dairy– Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, and even quark.
- Protein powder– Add a protein boost with a scoop of protein powder (or make protein shakes).
- Grains– Rolled oats, quinoa flakes, or barley flakes.
Homemade frozen smoothie packs
Smoothie packs are pre-packaged including everything that would found in a typical smoothie. All you do is blend it all together when you want to enjoy a smoothie.
Skip the expensive store-bought kinds and make your own. Simply add your favorite frozen fruit, vegetables, ice blocks and/or frozen milk blocks and keep in the freezer until ready to drink!
Storing and freezing instructions
- To store: Freshly made smoothies should be enjoyed immediately, however, they will keep well for up to eight hours refrigerated. Be sure to whisk the smoothie in case of any separation.
- To freeze: Smoothies can be frozen in ‘blocks’ and stored in the freezer for up to two months. When ready to enjoy, remove the smoothie block from the freezer and re-blend it until smooth. To thin it out, you can add some water, milk, or juice.
