She believes that living a healthy lifestyle and eating for your health isn't meant to be complicated -- it's meant to be simple, enjoyable, and judgment-free (with room for dessert). When she’s not dishing out nutrition tidbits, you can find McKenzie visiting her local farmers market, hiking her favorite trails with her husband, and chasing after her daughters.

With its flexible design and powerful portability, the nutribullet Flex™ Portable Blender makes fueling for any occasion a total piece of cake. If you need some inspiration on where to start, we’ve compiled some of our favorite recipes for any on-the-go scenario. Check out the recipes below, try them out, then mix and match to make them your own. With this hyper-portable blender by your side, whatever you sip on the move is a guaranteed flex.

Flexing for the gym? Before your workout, fuel up with easily digestible carbs and anti-inflammatory nutrients. This Spiced Blueberry Cooler contains all of the above to fire you up for any sweat sesh.

After your workout, look to complex carbohydrates and protein to replenish glycogen stores and support muscle repair. This Cherry Cheesecake Recovery Shake includes all of the above to get you refueled for the road, post-pump. We suggest pre-loading your nutribullet Flex™ with ingredients, then tossing in your bag until you’re ready to blend at the gym. Once blended, you can twist off the Motor Base to reduce carrying weight by 50%*. Store the Base in your bag while you sip your smoothie from your vessel with ease. 

Flexing for your commute? Skip the drive-thru line and fill your Flex™ with wholesome ingredients and energy boosting cold brew instead. This sweet and creamy Protein Cold Brew functions as a frozen coffee drink and a protein shake in one, with Greek yogurt and protein powder to power you up for the day ahead. Blend at home, detach the blending cup from the Motor Base for your car ride, and carry on.

Flexing for the beach? Use frozen fruit to make a refreshing frozen beverage, right at the beach! We love this Turmeric Colada Smoothie – a fresh twist on the piña colada with an anti-inflammatory boost. Pack your nutribullet Flex™ in your car, then blend just before hitting the sand.

Flexing to boost your nutrition? Did you know only 1 in 10 Americans get enough fruits and vegetables each day? Get in on the action by drinking more smoothies – one of the simplest ways to boost your daily produce intake. This vibrant Green Morning Smoothie and the timeless Strawberry Banana Classic each contain multiple portions of the good stuff to give you a quick infusion of plant-based nutrition.

From post-workout protein shakes to fresh, fruity smoothies, your nutribullet Flex™ is the perfect partner for making fast, fresh, delicious fuel for wherever life takes you. It’s portable blending that won’t weigh you down. Now that’s a flex!
