Optimize your smoothie preparation to succeed in your Smoothie 20 Days Challenge
Drinking a smoothie is an easy and delicious way to provide your body with a large amount of nutrients. Whether you're in the middle of the Smoothie 20 Days Challenge or simply a smoothie enthusiast, a few tips can help you save time and enhance the quality of your preparations.
We’ve already shared tips on how to create a balanced smoothie and boost your immune system, but here are three new tricks to optimize your routine and blend like a pro!
1. Prepare your smoothies in advance
Save time, it's the key to long-term success. Pre-prepared pouches or jars are an ideal solution. Here’s how to do it:
Wash, dry, and chop all your solid ingredients
Place them in an airtight pouch or jar
Store them in the fridge or freezer
When you're ready to blend, simply transfer the ingredients into your blender, add your favorite liquid (almond milk, coconut water, etc.), and blend!
Bonus tip: If you're using a Nutribullet 900, you can prepare your smoothies directly in the blender cup and store it in the fridge until you're ready to enjoy!
2. Freeze overripe fruits and vegetables to avoid waste
Overripe fruits and vegetables are perfect for smoothies! Instead of throwing them away, freeze them for easy reuse.
Bananas: Peel, cut into chunks, and freeze in an airtight bag.
Avocados: Cut in half, remove the pit, slice, and freeze.
Spinach or kale: Blend with a bit of water or almond milk, then pour into ice cube trays. This way, you can add a few cubes to your smoothie for a nutrient boost without any waste!
3. Vary your ingredients and dare to add vegetables
Smoothies are the perfect opportunity to add nutrient-rich vegetables without noticing their taste.
Try adding these unexpected yet beneficial ingredients:
Cauliflower or zucchini (for a creamy texture without a strong taste)
Frozen peas (a source of plant-based protein and fiber)
Broccoli or carrots (slightly sweet and rich in vitamins)
Try this recipe: A chocolate and banana smoothie with a secret ingredient... frozen peas! Their subtle taste blends perfectly with cocoa and banana.
