Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 medium Banana
- 1 cup Frozen mixed berries
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Milk (or plant-based milk)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Peel the banana and cut it into chunks for easier blending.
In a blender, add the cream cheese, banana chunks, frozen mixed berries, Greek yogurt, and milk.
If you'd like a sweeter smoothie, drizzle in the honey.
Add the ice cubes to the blender to keep the smoothie chilled and give it a frothy texture.
Blend the mixture on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the blender with a spatula, if necessary.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. For presentation, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh berries or a dollop of Greek yogurt, if desired.
