Creamy Big Green Smoothie

Got extra greens in your crisper? Blend ’em up with some frozen fruit, nutty hempseeds, and spicy ginger in this Creamy Big Green Smoothie. The silky tofu provides a shot of plant protein, but we promise that its beany flavor disappears in the mixture.

Backup Bananas

For natural sweetness and creamy (not icy) body, look no further than subzero bananas. Peel and chop fresh bananas into 1 inch chunks, spread them out on a baking sheet, and freeze them until solid. Transfer the frozen chunks to an airtight container and stash it in the freezer until a smoothie craving strikes.
