DIY Smoothie Starters

I am always looking for quick and easy ways to get greens in at breakfast time. One of my students knows how much I love smoothies and juice, so she sent me straight to this month’s edition of Runners’ World magazine, which had a fantastic smoothie starter recipe. I switched out a few ingredients, made it more plant friendly, and added a little spinach to top it off. So good. And so healthy.

You’ll need a muffin pan and a blender.

Smoothie Starters:

Makes 12 starter cups.

2 cups vanilla coconut milk

1 cup frozen blueberries

1 cup strawberries

1 frozen banana

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup almond butter

2 tbsp molasses

2 tsps vanilla

1 tsp lemon zest

1 tsp cinnamon

Blend all ingredients. Evenly distribute in a muffin pan and freeze. Once frozen, transfer to an alternate container to store in the freezer. Smoothie Starters

When you are ready to make your smoothie. Grab a handful of spinach, a starter or two and coconut milk. Blend until smooth.
