Instructions
- Prepare Freezer Bag: Fill a sandwich-size freezer bag with avocado, spinach, banana, mango, hemp seeds, maca powder, and protein powder if using. Seal the bag tightly and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months to keep ingredients fresh and ready to blend.
- Blend Smoothie: When ready to enjoy, empty the contents of the smoothie bag into a blender. Add 1 cup of unsweetened nut milk. Blend on high speed until smooth, adding additional nut milk as needed to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and top with frozen or fresh berries and granola for added texture and flavor. Enjoy immediately for a refreshing and healthy boost.
Notes
- Freezing the smoothie ingredients ahead of time saves preparation effort and keeps produce fresh for months.
- You can omit the banana or protein powder if you prefer a lighter smoothie.
- Use any unsweetened nut milk such as almond, cashew, or oat milk based on your preference.
- Add more nut milk gradually to adjust smoothie thickness to your liking.
- For an extra nutrient boost, try adding chia seeds or flaxseeds alongside the hemp seeds.
- The smoothie is best enjoyed fresh after blending to preserve nutrients and taste.
