Smoothie Recipe Without Yogurt and Banana
Let me show you how to make a smoothie without yogurt or banana. It's a healthy breakfast or snack that has no banana flavor.
Servings: 1 smoothie
Cost: $3
Equipment
- 1 High powered blender (I use a Vitamix)
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsweetened plain almond milk (or sub different milk)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (or frozen strawberries)
- ½ cup fresh pineapple (or frozen pineapple)
- ½ cup fresh peaches (or frozen peaches)
- 1 tablespoon Almond Butter (optional for protein)
- ½ cup ice
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup (optional for extra sweetness)
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to the blender.
- Start the blender on low and bring it up to high speed. If using a high-powered blender, you will blender for 1 minute. If using a normal blender, you may need to stir a few times, and continue blending for 2 minutes.
- Serve the smoothie in a large glass and enjoy!
Notes
Tips:
-
- Using a high-powered blender like a Vitamix will yield a much smoother smoothie.
-
- Add fresh fruit to the bottom of the blender and the frozen fruit and ice on top. It will help the smoothie to blend easier.
-
- Storage: Store the smoothie in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. However, for best results drink it immediately.
-
- Freezing: I highly recommend freezing any leftover smoothie into smoothie popsicles. You can find a popsicle mold on Amazon and then have a refreshing healthy treat anytime you'd like. Smoothie popsicles will last up to 3 months in the freezer. It is a great healthy alternative to ice cream.
