- Use unsweetened nut milk: Unsweetened nut milk keeps the smoothie naturally sweet and low in calories. You can use almond milk, cashew milk, or coconut milk.
- Add a scoop of protein powder: Protein powder gives the smoothie a boost of protein and makes it more filling. You can use whey protein, soy protein, or pea protein.
- Don't skimp on the nuts: Nuts add healthy fats, protein, and flavor to the smoothie. Use raw, unsalted cashews or almonds.
- Add a little bit of sweetness: If you like your smoothies sweet, add a touch of honey, maple syrup, or stevia. You can also use frozen fruit to naturally sweeten the smoothie.
