Expert Tips
- Tip # 1: If you don’t have fresh broccoli, you could use frozen broccoli florets but would need to add additional liquid to gain the correct consistency.
- Tip # 2: If by accident you over pour your liquids and the smoothie is too thin, you can add more frozen pineapple to help thicken.
- Tip # 3: To make this even easier, you could pre measure the ingredients into zip lock bags in the freezer so that you can dump into the blender, add the coconut milk, and blend.
