Smoothie Prep!

Alright y'all, prepping smoothies takes time.  The meal plan I'm on provides for many home-cooked meals and as part of the meal plan I have to prep one green smoothie PER DAY. Last week my mornings went like this:

1) First get all your ingredients on hand,
2) Then wash everything,
3) Chop the choppables,
4) Peel the peelables,
5) Juice the juicables...

Prepping smoothies after prepping breakfast and before Ryan leaves at 8am each day has had me running around too much in the mornings so I've streamlined my smoothie prep.  I get everything out, ready, packaged up ready to blend for the next few days all in one evening.  Two evening smoothie preps are much less chaotic than five morning smoothie preps!  I'm looking forward to less-chaotic mornings this week!

Here's how smoothie prep looked tonight:

Top left: all the dry ingredients: leafy greens, herbs, hemp hearts, edamame, etc.
Top right: foil layer to separate wet from dry.
Bottom left: wet (juicy) ingredients: apple slices, strawberries, blueberries, orange, etc.
Bottom right: the final product!! Now all I have to do is toss all that in the blender with some water/almond milk/or other liquid and my smoothie is ready to go!!  This container has enough for one smoothie for me and one smoothie for the hubbyman.  If you're not comfortable joining the wet and dry ingredients together, just skip the foil layer and put the wet and dry ingredients in separate containers!  Like so:

All together now:
In case you're wondering, I will use the juice from that lemon, I don't blend lemon peel into the smoothie.

Yum!  I could totally go for a green smoothie right now!
