Notes
Bring to School 'In a Cold Thermos': Place a thermos in the freezer overnight and make the smoothie in the morning. Then, pour the smoothie into the chilled thermos. Place in a lunch bag with freezer packs and enjoy later on at school or work for a great snack!
More Protein: Add a scoop of your favourite protein powder.
No Coconut Milk: Any plant based milk will work, to keep it nut-free try oat milk. If you do not need this recipe to be nut-free almond milk is great!
Add Veggies: Add frozen zucchini to keep it creamy, lightly steamed and frozen cauliflower, or spinach in a pinch (add to taste).
