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
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
Nutrition Boosters
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Wash the strawberries thoroughly and hull them. Peel and slice the banana. Having the ingredients prepped in advance makes blending easier.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
