Green Protein Smoothie Freezer Packs

Freezer meals are a game changer for anyone on the GO. Whether you’re flying out the door for work, school, or there’s a hungry infant in the house, having quick + easy + HEALTHY meals at the ready can be a real life-saver. To prepare for baby, we socked up a dedicated deep freeze with a number of cooked meals, but I also wanted something with raw ingredients at the ready. Smoothie Freezer Packs were the perfect solution! While I could easily make a smoothie, it helps to have all the contents pre-measured out in a handy bag. Now, all I need to do is grab a Smoothie Freezer Packs from the freezer, toss it in my blender (or bullet), add water (or coconut water, for bonus potassium), and blend!

One trick to an easy Smoothie Freezer Pack is to pre-freeze your coconut milk and the fruit. By chopping up bananas and freezing them on a quick sheet pan, it helps make it much easier to portion them out in your packs. I also like to pre-pour my coconut milk into an ice cube tray first. This way, I can pop out exactly what I want to put into each bag, making sure I get the right amount of healthy fats in each one. I’m also a big fan of using frozen (raw) spinach. I’ve found that frozen spinach is more compact than fresh, meaning I can get more greens in each smoothie.

I especially love this Green Protein Smoothie Freezer Pack because of the green + protein bonus! Getting fresh greens in my diet is a priority, but not always easy when I’m relying on cooked meals from our freezer stash and takeout brought to us by friends + family.

These packs include spinach, protein powder (my favorite is a simple whey-based powder), frozen bananas, frozen coconut milk cubes, bonus chlorella powder, and chia. The chlorella, if you’re curious, is a great source of magnesium and chlorophyll (which can actually help with headaches!). It can also aid in helping the body to rid itself of heavy metals. THIS is one of the chlorella powders I like and THIS is the (unflavored & unsweetened) whey protein powder I like best. All in all, this makes one TASTY smoothie that I really look forward to! I hope they serve you well!
