It’s my first recipe of the new year! Seems only fitting that I start out the new year with trying something fresh. My very FIRST cooking video!
Well, you can’t really call making a smoothie ‘cooking’, but you know what I mean. 🙂 I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time and I really hope you guys like it! I’m a super awkward person (ask any of my girlfriends) so this isn’t the easiest thing for me, but I’ve had this feeling for a long time like video would be a way for me to take this site to the next level. I tried vlogging our daily lives and doing favorites videos and stuff but that wasn’t really feeling it 100%. I have a much better feeling about doing these kinds of videos! I’m planning to do one every week on Thursdays, and then sprinkle my usual posts in during other times of the week. Okay enough blabbering, here’s this super awesome nutrition packed smoothie that you should definitely try:
- 1 c. frozen strawberries
- 1/2 c. frozen blueberries
- 1/4 c. frozen guanabana
- 1 packet frozen acai berry
- 1 T. chia seeds
- 1 ripe banana (I don’t use a frozen one since the rest of the fruit is frozen)
- 1 c. almond milk (or as much as you need to get to desired consistency)
- Blend all the ingredients together and enjoy 1-2 hours before your workout!
I’ll need lots of these in the near future!
-Lauren

A pre-workout shake is most effective if drunk around half an hour before you start your session. If you don’t begin your workout until hours after you’ve downed it, you’re unlikely to see any real benefit. And don’t pick a shake that’s purely protein-based. “A shake with high protein and low carbs is not ideal,”
