# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • No thinking required on busy mornings—grab, blend, drink, done.
  • The tropical pineapple actually makes spinach taste like a treat, not a sacrifice.
  • Four servings prep in under 15 minutes, and they sit happily in the fridge for days.
  • Costs way less than buying pre-made smoothies, and you know exactly what's in them.
02 -
  • Don't skip the chia seeds—they're not just nutritious, they actually help prevent the smoothie from separating and becoming a watery mess by day three.
  • Layer the spinach and softer fruits separately if you're prepping more than four days ahead, because liquids will wilt the greens if they're touching too long.
03 -
  • Prep your fruit the night before if mornings are chaos, so Sunday assembly takes even less time.
  • The coldness matters—chill your blender pitcher or add an ice cube if you want that frosty smoothie shop feeling without the price tag.
