Units
Scale
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1/2 banana
- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 2 teaspoons ground flaxseeds (optional)
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a high-powdered blender.
- Blend until creamy and smooth, adding more milk as needed.
- Serve immediately and enjoy. Tastes best when fresh.
Notes
- Keep it vegan by using dairy-free milk and plant-based protein powder.
- If using fresh fruit, you’ll need to add 4-5 ice cubes to make the smoothie cold.
- Banana subsitute: The banana makes this smoothie extra creamy and slightly sweet. You can add 1 tablespoon of honey, maple syrup, agave nectar, or 1-2 Medjool dates instead of the banana.
- Flaxseed substitute: Use chia seeds or hemp seeds instead.
- Nutrition information is a rough estimate based on using unsweetened almond milk and plant-based protein powder.
