Welcome to the
HEALTHY NOW
SMOOTHIE GUIDE
Smoothies are a great idea for breakfast, lunch
or a healthy snack. Here you'll find a few of my
favorite smoothies and my best smoothie
making tips.
HEALTHY NOW SMOOTHIE GUIDE

Blending Tips
• Always add liquid first
• Ice will thicken your smoothie but
can also dilute the flavor, so start off
with ½ cup if not using frozen fruit
• If your smoothie is too thick, more
liquid is usually needed
• The secret to a super thick and
creamy shake is blend, blend, and
then blend some more!
Ingredient Tips
• Adjust the amount of sweetener or fruit to your taste
• Stock up on organic frozen fruit. They’re super convenient and make
your smoothie nice and cold
• Peel and freeze your bananas (grapes can be frozen, too!)
• Try using unsweetened chocolate almond milk or vanilla coconut
milk for different flavors
• A high-quality protein powder is great to add to smoothies,
especially if you’re making one for a morning meal or snack. For
protein powder suggestions, visit Danielle’s store here
• If you’re new to adding greens to your smoothies, start with baby
spinach, it has a mild flavor (you might not even notice it’s there!)
•Once you get comfortable with green smoothies, try subbing out the
spinach for baby kale, Swiss chard, arugula, or collard greens
