My Favorite Smoothie Recipe
I was never a big fan of smoothies. I wanted to actually chew the food I consumed. As they say, you can teach an old dog new tricks. Last Spring when I was doing a Gut Reset Protocol after 6 weeks of IV antibiotics, smoothies were a big part of the plan. There was a protein powder that I took twice a day that had ingredients to support my body in detoxing from the meds, and wow, did it work. It wasn’t just the supplement powder though; I also added high-nutrient vegetables and healthy fats, and the smoothie became a staple in my eating even after I moved into a different protocol.
Now that I have a little more freedom in my food choices I mix the ingredients up here and there but the “Creature of Habit” that I am, I have a go-to that is in pretty consistent rotation.
Chelle’s Favorite Smoothie.
12 oz Coconut Water (Kirkland Organic)
1 cup frozen cauliflower rice
1 cup organic frozen strawberries
1 T Chia Seeds (Mayorga Organic Chia Seeds*)
1 T Flax Oil*
1 scoop Protein Powder (My favorites are Food For Life, Ultraclear Renew, Truvani*)
1 scoop Sports Research Collagen Peptides*
Pop it all into my Nutribullet* and blend away! I have to shout out Nutribullet as well. We have easily made 2-3 smoothies every day since January 2024 and I can’t believe we haven’t killed it yet. Clearly, we tried. Hahaha We finally splurged for a new one just to get a fun color.
