cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Low-fat cheese reduces calories; processed cheese is usually cheaper.

enchilada sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato sauce

💰Cheaper: store-brand enchilada sauce

Homemade sauce can be healthier with fresh ingredients; store brands are often less expensive.

Start with the frozen ingredients in the blender for better blending.

Add 1/2 cup of chocolate protein powder to the blender.

Add 2 cups of frozen strawberries and bananas.

Add 1 cup of fat-free yogurt.

Add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of vanilla.

Turn on the Ninja Foodi blender and select the smoothie cycle.

Use the tamper if ingredients get stuck to push them down towards the blade.

After blending, check the consistency of the smoothie.

Pour the smoothie into a cup and perform the straw test to check thickness.

If using fresh strawberries and bananas, consider adding ice for texture.
