How to make healthy tasty smoothies?
Since we are smoothie buddies, I want to share with you my secret to making healthy tasty smoothies. Find below some of my tips and tricks on how to make the smoothie of your dream!
Use the best ingredients you can find – It doesn’t matter if you’re using fresh or frozen plants, the most important thing is to use real plants in your smoothies instead of powders. If you can use only organic plants because they have more real nutrients and less pesticide residue.
Use more veggies and only a few fruits – Vegetables are naturally low in sugar and higher in nutrients compared to most fruits.
Frozen plants will make it easy – When using frozen plants in your smoothies, you can literally skip any kind of prep work. Plus your smoothies will always turn out creamy and perfectly blended.
Use organic plants if you can – Everybody knows that organic plants have more nutrients per serving and less pesticide residue, so they are better for health.
Always stick to using whole foods instead of powders – While it’s true that powders can boost the nutrient content of your smoothie (think protein powder) it’s important to understand that we consume smoothies for other reasons too.
Smoothies are a great source of various healthy fibers, plus raw enzymes and phytonutrients (including antioxidants), just to name a few of the healthy nutrients.
Use plenty of healthy fats – Good fats like avocado and coconut will make your smoothie creamy and also provide your body with the fatty acids it needs in order to thrive,
Add enough liquid but don’t over do it – This is easy! we don’t want a “watery” smoothie, rather one that is well mixed and creamy, right?!
Use plain water – My advice is to use plain water as your main liquid base or homemade nut milks. Please do not use juice or other kinds of “drinks”, water is just fine (make sure to use pure water if you can).
