Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 1 whole banana
- 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cups almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tablespoons honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 teaspoons chia seeds (optional, for added nutrition)
- 3 whole ice cubes
Instructions
Gather all your ingredients and ensure that the berries are frozen for a thicker smoothie.
Peel the banana and break it into chunks for easier blending.
In a blender, add the frozen mixed berries, banana chunks, plain Greek yogurt, and almond milk.
If you want a slightly sweeter smoothie, add honey, and for an extra nutritional boost, sprinkle in the chia seeds.
Drop in the ice cubes to make your smoothie extra chilled and refreshing.
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 1 minute or until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides if necessary.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness with more honey or thickness with more almond milk, if desired.
Pour into two glasses, garnish with a few fresh berries or a sprinkle of chia seeds if desired, and serve immediately.
