Prepare these smoothies the night before for quick smoothie making. Great for leftover fruits and veg that you need to clean your fridge of. Just throw it in and hope for the best! Inspired by my Green Energy Smoothies
Ingredients
Strawberry banana
½ banana
6 strawberries
1 cup green tea
1 scoop protein powder
1 tablespoon chia seeds [optional]
1 serving probiotics [optional for some, a must for me!]
Blueberry peach
½ peach
1 cup blueberries
1 cup green tea
1 scoop protein powder
1 tablespoon chia seeds [optional]
1 serving probiotics [optional]
Instructions
Choose a flavor, or prepare both. They stay well in the fridge for 2 days, so you can make both ahead of time.
Combine all ingredients in a 1L mason jar. Seal and place in the fridge overnight.
In the morning, place contents in a blender and blend to your hearts content.
Enjoy!
Notes
You can make this smoothie right in the blender, or have it sit overnight. I like letting it sit overnight so the chia has time to get really gelatinous.
If you don’t want to use green tea because of the caffeine, try a nice herbal tea.
