Quick Tips:
Prep your fruits and veggies ahead of time, portion them into small containers and store them in your freezer. Not only does this allow for quick smoothie prep, but the frozen ingredients create a creamier texture.
Add any other smoothie garnish that you like: cacao nibs, puffed rice, nut butter, mint, etc.
