Some things are on repeat at my house, and this smoothie is one of them. It’s my daughters go to lunch or after school snack at least weekly. The toppings vary and sometimes it gets honey or maple syrup drizzled on top, but the base stays the same. I think your kids just might love it as much as she does.
Ingredients:
- 2 cup frozen strawberries
- 3/4 cup vanilla yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder ✅
Gluten-Free Guide: If you’re new to eating gluten-free we understand it’s overwhelming trying to figure out which foods may contain gluten and which ones don’t. All of our gluten-free recipes marked with this symbol ✅ represent foods that need to be checked for gluten.
Toppings (optional but recommended):
- Granola (for gluten-free we love Back to Nature Vanilla Almond Agave)
- Sliced bananas or strawberries
- Chia seeds
- Peanut butter or nuts
- Drizzle of honey or maple syrup
Instructions:
Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the Greek yogurt, milk, and protein powder, and frozen strawberries. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more milk until you reach your desired consistency. If it’s too thin add more frozen strawberries. I find that the mixture blends better when you add the liquid ingredients first, adding the frozen strawberries last.
Add Toppings: Pour the smoothie mixture into a bowl. Top with your favorite toppings. Freshly sliced bananas, GF granola, chia seeds, peanut butter or nuts, and a drizzle of honey add great flavor and texture.
Substitutions:
- Fruit: Swap frozen strawberries with any other frozen berries, bananas, or mangoes.
- Yogurt: Use plant-based yogurt for a dairy-free option.
- Milk: Substitute with almond milk, soy milk, or any other plant-based milk.
- Protein Powder: Choose a plant-based protein powder if you prefer a vegan option or any flavor to suit your taste.
- Sweeteners: Add a natural sweetener like maple syrup or agave nectar if you prefer a sweeter smoothie.
