Interested, but not sure where to start?
Smoothies can be uber complicated or ridiculously simple. Let’s break it down.
Base: Homemade or store bought will work. If store bought, pay attention to added sugar- some brands are packing heat. Almond milk Coconut milk Cashew milk Coconut water Maple water Water
Greens: Should be the bulk of your smoothie. The deeper greens tend to be bitter in flavor and yield a higher nutritional content. Kale Spinach Arugula Chard Dandelion
Fruits: Try and select fruits low in sugar (such as berries) and keep in mind without a binder your smoothie is not likely to be smooth. Make it easy on yourself by purchasing pre-packaged frozen fruit- be conscious in purchasing unadulterated varieties. All berries: raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, mullberries Melons: cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon Banana (binder) Mango (binder) Avocado (binder)
