Notes

Leftovers: I suggest making and enjoying this smoothie fresh as the taste and texture are best. If you have leftovers or want to make it ahead, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. When ready to drink, give it a shake (as it may separate a bit) and enjoy!

*For easiest blending:

If using a blender cup with the blade on top (like most personal blenders), add frozen or harder ingredients (like frozen cauliflower) first, followed by the seeds then the yogurt and liquid last.
If using a traditional blender with the blade at the bottom, reverse the order with liquids first and frozen ingredients last.
