Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 - 1 1/2 cups unsweetened plain almond milk sub: your choice of milk
  • 1/2 banana sliced (preferably frozen for best texture)
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons old-fashioned rolled oats for GF: look for gluten-free oats
  • 2 tablespoons chopped raw walnuts sub: chopped raw pecans or almonds

Instructions

Make It Now:

  • 1. Start by adding 1 cup almond milk to a high-powered blender. Then, add all the other ingredients.
  • 2. Blend until smooth. You may need to stop and stir/shake the blender or add up to a 1/2 cup more of almond milk, as needed, to make sure it gets smooth.

Make Freezer Smoothie Packs for Later:

    1. Layer ingredients in small freezer bags in this order:

    • 1/2 banana, sliced 
    • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
    • 2 tablespoons old-fashioned rolled oats (for GF: look for gluten-free oats)
    • 2 tablespoons chopped raw walnuts (sub: chopped raw pecans or almonds)
    • 2. Seal tightly, squeezing out the air, and freeze for up to 3 months.
    • 3. To Blend: Pour 1 cup almond milk into a high-powered blender first. Break up the ingredients in the bag by hitting it on the counter or crunching it with your hands. Dump the ingredients from the bag in and follow blending instructions above.

    Notes

    • If you like things sweeter, just add a dollop of honey, pure maple syrup, or agave nectar until you get the flavor you desire. You could also add more banana.
    • Check out all 7 smoothie packs and download a recipe cheat sheet and shopping list.
    • If you'd like to add in more protein, feel free to add in a sugar-free, unflavored protein powder or collagen powder. I like Vital Protein Collagen Peptides. You may need to add a little more liquid.
    • Gluten-Free Note: If you have a gluten allergy, be sure to buy certified gluten-free oats. While oats are a naturally gluten-free food, they are often processed in a factory where gluten is present.
