Celebrate with Chocolate Blueberry Spinach Protein Smoothie Recipe

YAY! It’s 2020 which is extra cool to start a whole new decade along with a new year. Now that the holidays have officially come to an end, it’s that time of year when we tidy up the house, pack away the holiday decor, and take inventory of our eating habits, too.

It’s a great time to refocus on healthy eating habits and a balanced lifestyle.

What’s the difference between a smoothie & a shake

Most people love smoothies and shakes, some don’t really know the differences between them because after all the both cold and refreshing, drinkable, and delicious!

• In my opinion it all comes down to ice cream. . . yes, it’s true!
• Smoothies do not have ice cream, candy bars, cookies or pies in them. Smoothies are filled with healthy for you ingredients like fruit and veggies and healthier forms of protein and dairy.
• Don’t get me wrong. . . I enjoy them both as probably most of you do too!
• I just enjoy smoothies on a more regular basis and shakes wellllll they’re a more special occasion or dessert kind of treat.

Smoothie 101

• Invest in a heavy duty blender; I’ve used a Blend Tec for well over a century now and I love it! It’s powerful enough to blend frozen fruit and vegetables smooth, smooth, smooth!
• I prefer using frozen fruits and vegetables in my smoothies so they have a thicker consistency.
• Freeze extra fruits and vegetables as they are just beginning to turn over-ripe; I use gallon plastic zip top freezer bags to toss them in.
• Freeze fresh produce to use later- I find they last just fine for up to 4 weeks. ie: spinach or mixed salad greens, baby carrots, cucumbers, banana’s broken into four pieces, sliced/cored apples and pears, extra berries, peeled/segmented oranges and clementines, grapes, and the list goes on!
• Extra nutrient add in’s are always good try adding: vanilla and chocolate protein powders, dry oats, a small handful of nuts, peanut butter, flavored yogurt or kefir, and more.

Super food add in’s: gogi berries, coconut oil, avocado, acai or cacoa powder, chia or hemp or flax seeds, etc!
