Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (300g) frozen mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- 1 medium banana, sliced and frozen
- 1 cup (150g) frozen mango chunks (optional)
- 1 cup (30g) fresh baby spinach (can substitute with kale)
- ½ cup (120ml) plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup (60ml) small-curd cottage cheese (optional)
- ½ cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk or preferred milk (adjust when blending)
- 1 tablespoon (10g) ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Peel and slice the banana if not already frozen. Measure out your frozen berries and mango chunks. Freeze fresh fruit ahead of time if using.
- Lay out a freezer bag flat on a clean surface. Add about 1½ cups (225g) of the frozen fruit mix at the bottom.
- Place 1 cup (30g) of fresh baby spinach on top of the fruit.
- Spoon ½ cup (120ml) of plain Greek yogurt and ¼ cup (60ml) cottage cheese (if using) over the greens, spreading evenly but gently.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon (10g) ground flaxseed and drizzle 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup if desired. Add ½ teaspoon vanilla extract for flavor.
- Press out as much air as possible and seal the bag tightly. Flatten the pack to about ½-inch thickness for quick freezing and easy stacking.
- Place packs flat in the freezer. Store up to 4 weeks without losing flavor or texture.
- When ready, dump the entire pack into a blender, add ½ cup (120ml) almond milk or preferred liquid, and blend until smooth (about 1 to 2 minutes). Adjust liquid to preferred consistency.
Notes
Layer fruit first and greens on top to prevent greens from freezing into a solid block. Flatten bags before freezing for quicker thawing and easier stacking. Blend greens with liquid first if your blender struggles with leafy greens. Adjust liquid amount to achieve desired smoothie thickness. For dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt and cottage cheese with coconut yogurt or plant-based protein powder.
