Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh ripe strawberries, washed and hulled
  • 1 ripe banana, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt
  • 1/4 cup almond milk or preferred milk

Optional Sweeteners

  • 12 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)

Nutrition Boosters

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Wash the strawberries thoroughly and hull them. Peel and slice the banana. Having the ingredients prepped in advance makes blending easier.
  2. Blend the Base: Add the strawberries, banana slices, Greek or plant-based yogurt, and a splash of almond milk into the blender. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
  3. Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add more milk a little at a time until the desired texture is reached. If too thin, add frozen banana slices or ice cubes and blend again.
  4. Pour and Decorate: Pour the smoothie mixture into a bowl. Top with fresh fruit slices, granola, nuts, seeds, or other preferred toppings to add texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use frozen fruit to achieve a cold and creamy texture without diluting flavors with ice.
  • Adjust sweetness depending on the ripeness of your bananas to avoid over-sweetening.
  • Arrange toppings in aesthetically pleasing patterns like rows or circles for a beautiful presentation.
  • Pre-freeze banana slices for quick and easy future smoothie bowls.
  • Blend softer ingredients first, then add frozen fruit to protect your blender blades.
