Description

A delightful and refreshing blend of strawberries, banana, and yogurt, perfect for a healthy snack or breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 1 ripe banana, peeled
  • 1 cup yogurt (Greek or regular)
  • 1/2 cup milk (or almond milk)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Hull the strawberries and peel the banana, ensuring they are fresh to maximize flavor and nutrition.
  2. In a blender, combine the hulled strawberries, peeled banana, yogurt, milk, and honey (if using). This combination of ingredients creates a rich, creamy base for your smoothie.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth consistency.
  4. If you prefer a colder, thicker smoothie, add ice cubes and blend again until you achieve your desired consistency. Pour the smoothie into glasses for immediate enjoyment.

Notes

For a thicker smoothie, use frozen strawberries or bananas. You can also add flaxseed or chia seeds for added fiber.
