Healthy Shamrock Shake “Copycat” Meal Prep and Storage
Meal Prep: I like to freeze the bananas the night before or even earlier. The next time you have a banana a little spotted and “past it’s prime” slice and freeze it to make these yummy shakes!
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 1 day, though they won’t be as thick. I like to freeze them in an ice cube mold and add them to protein shakes.
Repurposing: Freeze leftovers in ice cube molds and re-use in protein shakes, to make an iced coffee, or blend for a yummy ice cream like treat.
