My smoothies consist of fruit, yogurt and milk. I don't really feel the need to make a three ingredient smoothie faster. But maybe if I were using a big blender it would help to have it portioned; I'm a magic bullet girl.

what a waste of plastic bags for something that is so simple to make! i cut up my fruit and veggies the night before and put them in the fridge in the blender cup so that all i have to do in the morning is blend it.

Well, you could just have a week's worth and reuse the baggies. Or maybe use those freezer jam jars? Either way, I think this is a great idea. My blender won't fit in my fridge, and I am often trying to do things with one hand in the mornings.

Also, I am lazy.

I'm going to try using the jam jars to split up the spinach for my smoothies (supposed to make it stay fresh longer?), but I use frozen fruit (bananas, strawberries, blueberries) so it's easy just to grab some.

I like this idea! I'm not sure if I'll do it, but the concept is useful. If I could find freezer containers that I could stick my wand blender into and then serve directly out of, I'd really be set.

Ohhhhhhh! I was thinking that this might be a waste of time for me since I buy my fruit pre-frozen, but I could see how this might work for some people. Then I clicked to the source post and saw that she actually freezes pre-portioned out yogurt in an ice cube tray and includes yogurt cubes in the baggies (it's not just fruit in the baggies). Brillz! Might do that one.
