Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece frozen banana
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of your choice)
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter (or any nut butter)
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
Instructions
Peel the frozen banana and break it into smaller chunks for easier blending.
Add the frozen banana chunks, frozen mixed berries, and baby spinach to a high-speed blender.
Pour in the almond milk and add the Greek yogurt to create a creamy base.
Sprinkle in the chia seeds and add the peanut butter for additional flavor and protein.
If desired, add one scoop of vanilla protein powder and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to boost sweetness.
Blend the mixture on high speed for 1–2 minutes or until completely smooth. You may need to pause and scrape down the sides to ensure everything blends evenly.
If the smoothie is too thick, gradually add more almond milk (a few tablespoons at a time) until the desired consistency is reached.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of chia seeds or a few whole berries on top.
