Unsweetened almond milk Smoothie Recipes

After receiving an email from one of my Fab Clients saying she is going to be getting braces and needs some new smoothie recipes I got the creative urge and this is what happened! I encourage you all to print this off and add it to your DAMY binder. Here I am going to give you an awesome “Build Your Own Shake” kit and some awesome recipes. There are enough combination’s and recipes here to last a lifetime (more than 101 combinations!). Enjoy and get creative with that blender! Thank you to my awesome clients that motivate me and inspire me everyday! This was a lot of fun!

If you love the benefit of adding greens to your smoothies and are looking for the healthiest, most nutrient packed smoothies you will find them here in this post. These are all my personal favorite glowing goddess smoothies.

Here is my basic list of great Smoothie ingredients!! Pick and choose one or more from each group and build your own amazing smoothies. Have fun with this! When you make sure to send me any great new ones you come up with!!!

PROTEIN

This is the most important category! Balancing your proteins in your smoothie is what takes it from a “treat” to a healthy snack or meal. Never skip this step. This is what will keep your blood sugars balanced and keep you full longer. If you want to burn fat never skip your protein.
*Always buy plain protein powder and add your own flavor! You want Chocolate? Nothing easier or better tasting than just adding natural cocoa powder and some Stevia to any DAMY Smoothie Protein you choose. Yummy Chocolate without the added sugar or chemicals!
This is the most important category!

Same with your yogurt! They say “low-fat strawberry” but most are loaded with chemicals and/or sugar. Natural is always your best choice.

Greek Natural, Plain Yogurt
Natural, Plain Whey Protein Powder
Natural, Plain Yogurt
Natural, Soy Protein Powder
Tofu
Natural, Plain Brown Rice Protein
Natural, Plain Hemp Protein

Liquid (Always add water to desired consistency)

*when choosing these “milks” make sure to buy unsweetened. I always go for at least 1/2 water when using milk or any other liquid.

Brewed, chilled Chai Tea
Soy Milk
Skim Milk
Almond Milk
Rice milk
Coconut Milk
Green Tea

Healthy Add Ons

Add in a little “Power Booster!” You see these at your favorite smoothie stand “for an added .50” – Holy mark-up! Make your own at home for a fraction of the cost.

*Avocado (makes your smoothie thick and the healthy fat helps with weight loss, shiny hair and healthy nails and skin. You will never know it is in there. Try it in your next chocolate shake – My personal favourite way to try it)

Fruits and More

* Having frozen fruit on hand makes these smoothies thick and cold. Cutting up bananas before you freeze them makes the blending process that much easier. Here are a few ideas!
