Next, add 1 cup of frozen mixed berries, ensuring that they are evenly layered over the milk.
Add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder to boost the protein content of your smoothie.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chia seeds into the mixture for added fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
Add 1 cup of fresh spinach leaves to increase the nutrient density without altering the flavor much.
Include 1 quarter cup of unsweetened Greek yogurt to add creaminess and extra protein.
Top it off with 4 ice cubes to make the smoothie cold and refreshing.
Pour in 0.5 cup of water to help blend everything smoothly and adjust consistency as needed.
Place the blender lid securely and blend all the ingredients on a high speed for about 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
