01 -

The combination of protein and natural sugar keeps you satisfied without that heavy breakfast feeling
You can customize the add-ins based on whatever your day needs, from extra protein to calming cinnamon

02 -

Frozen banana slices instead of fresh ones transform this into something resembling soft-serve ice cream in texture
Over-blending can make the smoothie warm and thin, so pulse just until everything comes together

03 -

If your blender struggles, add the liquid first and layer heavier ingredients on top
Letting the smoothie sit too long makes it separate, so drink it right away
