# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Takes literally five minutes from cupboard to glass, which matters when youre running late or just lazy
  • The protein keeps you full for hours without that heavy breakfast feeling
  • You can customize it endlessly based on whats wilting in your fruit bowl
02 -
  • Frozen bananas change everything, so stash overripe ones in your freezer instead of throwing them out
  • The chia seeds will keep thickening if you let it sit, so drink it right away or plan for pudding texture
  • Over-blending can make it warm, which is just sad, so stop as soon as its smooth
03 -
  • Let your ripe bananas go almost black before freezing, they blend better and taste sweeter
  • The order you add ingredients matters, liquids first so the blades can move freely
