Time-saving Superfood Smoothie Hack
Ensure that you're loading your smoothies with protein, fat, fiber and greens with this simple prep!

Ingredients:
SEED & SPICE MIXTURE:
1 tbsp/serving each ground flax, chia, & hemp seeds
1 tsp/serving turmeric &/or spirulina (these are optional!)
BERRIES:
1 cup frozen organic blueberries/raspberries (PC Organics carries a club pack of frozen Powerfruit: a delicious combination of cherries, blueberries & blackberries)
GREENS:
1/2 cup spinach/kale/arugula
HEALTHY FAT:
1/4 avocado/1 tbsp coconut manna (aka coconut butter)/nut butter
ALTERNATE MILK:
1 cup almond/cashew/Brazil nut/oat/hemp/rice milk (check out my blog recipe to make your own - it is way easier than you think!)
Other superfood options to add in to your premix if you like: maca, matcha, amla, raw cacao, or acai powder
Instructions:
Premix and store in a mason jar in the fridge your seed & spice mixture. If you'll be having 7 smoothies in a week, premix 7 tbsp each seed, & 7 tsp turmeric/spirulina.
Depending on the combination of premix ingredients you're using, add about 4 tbsp of your premix along with your alternate milk, berries, greens, and fat to a blender and blend until smooth.
Pour into a mason jar to consume right away, or throw in a whisk ball to prevent thickening as you sip throughout the day.
