Power up at home with our staff favorite that keeps us going on long days in the bus!
There's nothing more stressful than being hangry. Especially while sitting in a VW bus!
With every week's truck order, we make sure to add extra fruits and veggies to prep staff smoothies to keep on hand in our freezer. That way, if it's too busy to get out of the bus to eat, we can always quick blend up a healthy snack to keep us going! Okay sometimes a cinnamon roll sneaks in, but hey we have needs too!
Taking the extra time once a week to prep individual bagged smoothies makes it super easy to grab one out of your freezer when you need a healthy pick-me-up any time!
