  • The protein from Greek yogurt keeps you full straight through lunch
02 -
  • Frozen fruit is actually better here because it eliminates the need for ice, which just dilutes the flavor
  • If your smoothie is too thick, add milk one tablespoon at a time instead of dumping it all in at once
03 -
  • Start with less liquid than you think you need, you can always add more but you cannot take it back
  • Let frozen fruit sit on the counter for five minutes before blending if your blender is not very powerful
