Too hot to cook? Blend it πŸ₯΅


Hi there, Reader

It's hot, and I’ve rounded up some of my favourite vegan smoothie recipes because sometimes the best meal plan is not turning on the stove.

Cold, creamy, nutritious, ridiculously easy, and if the blender is doing all the work and you are not, we're calling that a win!

(I love an overachiever!) ✨ Quick to prep.πŸ”₯ Perfect for the BBQ.πŸ₯— Just as good on an indoor grill pan or in a skillet.πŸ“… Meal-prep friendly because the flavour gets even better as it hangs out in the fridge.
