Based on the visual layers in the jar, this is a Chocolate Berry Power Smoothie prep. It is designed to be nutrient-dense, balancing antioxidants from berries with healthy fats and plant-based protein.
Here is the detailed recipe based on the ingredients shown.
Ingredients List
(Estimated for a 16 oz / 500 ml jar)
-
Top Layer: 1 cup mixed frozen berries (Raspberries, Blackberries, and Strawberries).
-
Middle Layer: ½ cup fresh baby spinach.
-
Crunch Layer: ¼ cup raw sunflower seeds (or sliced almonds).
-
Base Layer: 1-2 scoops chocolate protein powder (or 2 tbsp cacao powder + 1 tbsp chia seeds).
-
Liquid (Add when blending): 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or water.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prep the Jar (As Pictured)
If you are meal-prepping this for later, layer the ingredients in this specific order to keep things fresh:
-
Powder first: Place your protein or cacao powder at the very bottom.
-
Seeds/Grains: Add the sunflower seeds; these act as a barrier between the powder and the “wet” greens.
-
Greens: Pack in the spinach tightly.
-
Fruit: Top with the frozen berries. The coldness of the berries helps keep the greens crisp.
2. Blend
When you are ready to eat:
-
Dump the contents of the jar into a high-speed blender.
-
Add 1 cup of your preferred liquid.
-
Optional: Add a half-frozen banana or ¼ avocado if you prefer a creamier, thicker texture.
-
Blend on high for 45–60 seconds until the seeds and spinach are completely pulverized.
