Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder
- 1 whole Frozen banana
- 1 cup Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Frozen mixed berries
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon Almond butter
- 5 cubes Ice cubes
Instructions
Start by gathering all the ingredients. Ensure you have a high-speed blender ready.
Pour 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk into the blender jug.
Add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder to the mixer. Opt for sugar-free protein powder to keep the smoothie sugar-free.
Peel a banana, slice it, and add it to the blender. Using a frozen banana will give the smoothie a thick, creamy texture.
Place 1 cup of fresh spinach into the blender. Spinach is a great source of vitamins and minerals without affecting the flavor.
Add 1 cup of frozen mixed berries to the mix. Berries are naturally sweet and will add a vibrant color to your gladiator smoothie.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chia seeds into the blender for an extra boost of omega-3 fatty acids and fiber.
Add 1 tablespoon of almond butter for healthy fats and a creamy texture.
Add 5 ice cubes to the mix for a chilly, refreshing smoothie.
Secure the blender lid tightly and blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Stop the blender and taste the smoothie. If necessary, adjust the consistency by adding more almond milk if it's too thick or more ice if you prefer a thicker texture.
Pour the smoothie into a tall glass, and enjoy immediately for the freshest taste.
