Notes
You can use any fruits, veggies, milks, or juices to make smoothies with this basic recipe.
The smoothie cubes can be kept in the ice cube tray or in a tupperware in the freezer for up to 6 months.
Extra smoothie can be frozen in ice cube trays or jars to defrost or put in other smoothies.
Blend the smoothie for about 30-60 seconds after it appears smooth - this will ensure all the chunks are blended.
