Less liquid = thicker smoothie!
Have you ever wondered how to make thick smoothies, ya know like the ones you buy from a smoothie stand? Without an expensive blender, using ice just doesn’t work. Either the ice wasn’t crushed enough, or if i omitted ice, the smoothie is super watery. For months, I tried recreating that thick texture and finally I was able to. So what’s my secret?
Frozen riced cauliflower! Now before judging, I swear you CANNOT even taste it. Frozen cauliflower is literally tasteless. It adds the perfect texture and also beefs up the volume of your smoothie. I use a frozen banana too. One last secret, when adding the fluid, like almond milk – add a little bit at a time. This will prevent it from getting too watery and keeps your smoothie nice and thick!
