Ingredients
  

For the Smoothie Base
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt Adds creaminess and a rich protein source; substitute with dairy-free yogurt for a vegan option.
  • 1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder For a protein punch; opt for plant-based protein powder if desired.
  • 1 cup Frozen Mixed Berries Provide natural sweetness and antioxidants; can be swapped with fresh fruit or other frozen fruits like strawberries.
  • 1 medium Banana Adds creaminess and potassium; can be replaced with avocado for a creamy texture without the sweetness.
  • 1 cup Milk (any type) Acts as the liquid base; use almond, oat, or soy milk for dairy alternatives.
Optional Add-Ins
  • 1 cup Spinach or Kale For extra nutrition; these greens won’t alter the taste significantly.
  • 1 tablespoon Almond Butter Adds more protein and healthy fats; perfect for a richer flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds or Ground Flaxseed Boost omega-3s and fiber content effortlessly.

Method
 

Step-by-step Instructions
  1. Start by gathering your blender and measuring cup. Pour in 1 cup of your milk of choice as the base. Next, add the soft ingredients: slice a banana and spoon in 1 cup of Greek yogurt.
  2. Now, it’s time to incorporate the frozen mixed berries—about 1 cup—spreading them evenly over the yogurt and banana. Sprinkle 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder on top.
  3. Secure the lid on your blender and pulse at high speed for 60 to 90 seconds until smooth.
  4. Once blended, pour the smoothie into a glass or mason jar. Enjoy immediately!
  5. If you have any leftovers, store the smoothie in a sealed mason jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
