| Hey there reader! I'm back again, talking about smoothies! 🍓🫐 Today, I want to share some tips on how to make your smoothies more filling and turn them into delicious meal replacements. 👉 As a fellow smoothie enthusiast and a 47-year-old mama going through menopause, I can't stress enough how much smoothies have improved my life. 😄 Which also means my family's life, because when mama happy, everyone happy 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ❓Let's address a common question I often receive: Can smoothies really keep you full and serve as a satisfying meal replacement? 🎉 The answer is YES! I personally enjoy smoothies as complete meals, by filling them with protein and healthy fats. To give your smoothies a protein boost, here are some of my favorite ingredients: ➡️ Collagen Powder: Adding a scoop of collagen powder is the easiest way to increase protein content. It's my go-to choice due to its numerous health benefits. I highly recommend the collagen powder from Thrive Market. Not only does it offer top-notch quality, but they also have the best price I've come across. ➡️ Plant-based Protein Powder: For those who prefer vegan options, Garden of Life Organic Raw Plant-based Protein Powder is a fantastic choice. It's the only brand I've found that doesn't leave an unpleasant aftertaste. Thrive Market offers this protein powder too, along with other brands you can explore. By incorporating collagen or protein powder into your daily routine, you might be wondering about the cost. While Thrive Market does have a yearly membership fee, if you plan on including either of these powders regularly, I genuinely believe it's a worthwhile investment. In fact, you'll end up saving money in the long run! 💰
But wait, there's more! Here are a few other ingredients to add healthy fats and protein to turn an smoothie into a meal replacement: 🥑 Avocado: Creamy and packed with healthy fats, avocados are a fantastic way to add protein and richness to your smoothies. Did you know you freeze avocado? Yup! Just cut it up, place in a freezer bag, and freeze. Take out what you need when you're ready to make a smoothie. 🥜 Nut Butter: Whether it's almond, peanut, or cashew butter, a spoonful of your favorite nut butter will not only add protein but also enhance the flavor and texture of your smoothie. 🌱 Chia Seeds: These tiny powerhouses are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein. They are my favorite way to a nutritious boost. 🍶 Greek Yogurt: Creamy and tangy, Greek yogurt is an excellent source of protein and adds a satisfying thickness to your smoothies. You can use non-dairy yogurt to keep smoothie vegan. Remember, it's all about finding what works best for you. Here are 3 of my favorite high protein smoothie recipes. Keep in mind, you can add a scoop of collagen or protein powder to any of these for an extra boost. Don't forget to take a look at my 10-Day Healthy Smoothie Challenge Guide! It's an awesome resource if you're searching for a fun and effective way to incorporate smoothies into your daily routine.
