Ingredients
- 1 cup (150g) mixed frozen fruits (bananas sliced, mixed berries, mango chunks, optional pineapple chunks)
- ½ cup (15g) baby spinach or kale (washed and dried)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds or flaxseeds
- ¼ cup (60g) Greek yogurt or dairy-free coconut yogurt
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
- Optional: 1 teaspoon protein powder
- Optional: drizzle of honey or maple syrup
- Liquid for blending: ¾ to 1 cup (180-240 ml) almond milk, oat milk, coconut water, or plain water
Instructions
- Gather and prep your ingredients: peel and slice bananas, chop fresh ginger, wash and dry spinach or kale thoroughly, and slice cucumber if using. Measure out seeds and powders.
- Assemble your packs: In each freezer-safe bag, add about 1 cup (150g) of mixed frozen fruits, ½ cup (15g) of greens, 2 tablespoons of chia or flaxseeds, ¼ cup (60g) of yogurt, and a small knob (about 1 teaspoon) of chopped ginger. If desired, sprinkle a teaspoon of protein powder or a drizzle of honey.
- Seal the bags carefully, pressing out excess air to avoid freezer burn, and label each bag with the date and contents if you like.
- Freeze the bags flat to freeze evenly and save space. They will be ready in a few hours and keep well for up to 3 months.
- When ready to blend, dump the contents of one pack into your blender, add about ¾ to 1 cup (180-240 ml) of your preferred liquid, and blend until smooth. If too thick, add a splash more liquid and pulse again. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
Notes
If your blender struggles with frozen chunks, let the packs sit out for a few minutes before blending or add more liquid. Label packs to avoid mystery flavors. Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and creamy texture. Freeze fruits in single layers before bagging to prevent clumping. For a smoother blend, add liquid first and pulse frozen chunks before continuous blending.
