Making smoothies is easy, right? That’s what everyone says and, while I know that it’s true, I have to wonder why people don’t make them more frequently. I can tell you why I don’t make them as much as I should: Because it’s kind of a pain in the butt to measure, cut, blend, and clean. Not hard—but a pain.Except when I prep these make-ahead smoothie packs.

So I came up with a shortcut that makes blending up a healthy breakfast or snack that much easier.
