These Anti-Inflammatory Smoothie Bombs Make The Easiest, Sunniest Breakfast
Smoothie bombs are your new secret weapon to supercharging any smoothie with nutrition and using up excess produce (ahem...I'm talking about the sad container of spinach hiding at the back of your fridge). Next time you're making a smoothie, add one of the bombs to your blender with your other ingredients of choice. More nutrition and less waste... Now we're talking!
Each makes: about 32 cubes
Start to finish: 5 minutes
- Combine each bomb's listed ingredients, pour into an ice cube tray, and freeze overnight. Once frozen, the smoothie bombs can be transferred to a reusable freezer bag. When ready to make a smoothie, transfer one to three cubes to a blender with 1 cup of plant-based milk plus other ingredients, such as fresh fruit or greens, as desired. Blend until smooth.
- Alternatively, you can add three or four of the anti-inflammatory, fiber-filled, or berry bombs to 1 cup of plant-based milk and allow them to melt for an on-the-go premade smoothie.
Storage: Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
