Serving Suggestions: By using some frozen fruits, you don't have to add ice to thicken your smoothie. Also try our Orange Cream Smoothie. To read more about which supplements to add to your smoothie, click here!
If you do have some smoothie left over, make smoothie pops! Pour into small 3 oz. paper cups, stick a popsicle stick in it and freeze! Popsicles will be ready in 4 hours. If you're not going to eat them within 24 hours, put popsicles in a plastic freezer bag. You can also do this with leftover pudding, too.
