Making pureed fruit & vegetable drinks in mason jars is
a great way create ready meals on the go for breakfast or to take to work for
lunch or a mid afternoon snack to revive your energy for the rest of the day.

I build my smoothies right in the jar. I sort of go by color. Get the kids involved w/ this too.
Remember that a bit of citrus in each
smoothie creates that craveability we all love. HARVEST HACKS:> If you have a back up of ripe fruits
& veggies blend them up and freeze them in ice cube trays. Add a few of those to each smoothie for
added flavor & nutrition
Add in any healthful ingredients you’ve heard about and want
to get more of in your diet. This
is a good place for those things we all see on Dr. Oz. Today I used turmeric & ginger,
dark blue algae, beet powder, hemp seeds & matcha green tea, spread out
between three separate smoothies.
Blend up the smoothies one at a time for a different flavor
in each jar. Add about 3/4
cup of water, brewed tea, coconut water, plant based or dairy milks, etc. Pour into jar, then use about 1/3 cup
water on high speed to rinse out the jar.
Add that to the smoothie.
Chill well & shake when you’re ready to eat.
You’ll find your own fresh creations more tantalizing &
much cheaper than juice bar offerings.
And using blended whole fruits and veggies retains all the nutritional
fiber that keeps our gut healthy.
I like high protein versions for breakfast & lighter veggie &
fruit juices for afternoons.
