I. Love. Smoothies.
My old roommate can attest to this; I would order an acai or pitaya bowl almost every single day. But then I realized how much money I was racking up on my smoothie tab so I bought a proper blender instead, and it completely changed my smoothie game.
Not only are smoothies a perfect way to cool down in this summer heat, they’re also one of my favorite post-workout snacks. They’re an easy way to sneak in anything you may be lacking during your day, whether it’s protein or greens. And of course, my favorite smoothies incorporate Wild Friends Nut Butters whether it’s inside the blend or on top.
I love trying new combinations, but there are two smoothies that I’m constantly going back to.
- Frozen acai pack
- 1/2c frozen blueberries
- 1 frozen banana
- 1c frozen cauliflower
- 1/2-1c almond milk
- Frozen pitaya pack
- 1 1/2c frozen cauliflower
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/2c frozen strawberries
- 1/2-1c almond milk

- 1T chia seeds or flax seeds
- 1-2 handfuls of spinach
