Description
A strawberry banana yogurt smoothie is a creamy, refreshing blend of sweet strawberries, ripe banana and yogurt — perfect for breakfast, a snack, or post‑workout. Easy, quick, and naturally sweet and nourishing.
Ingredients
- 1 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 ripe banana
- 1/2–3/4 cup plain or vanilla yogurt (Greek or regular)
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non‑dairy)
- 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
- Handful of ice cubes (optional, for extra chill and thickness)
- Optional add‑ins: 1 tbsp chia seeds or flaxseeds; a handful of spinach or kale; 1 tbsp nut butter; 1/4 cup rolled oats; 1 scoop protein powder
Instructions
- Add strawberries, banana, yogurt and milk to a blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides if needed to incorporate everything.
- If you want a colder or thicker smoothie, add ice cubes and blend again.
- Taste and adjust sweetness — add honey or maple syrup if desired.
- Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- You can swap strawberries for other berries or mango for a different flavor.
- Use almond milk and coconut or plant‑based yogurt for a dairy‑free version.
- Add spinach or kale for a nutrient‑boosted green smoothie.
- Mix in oats, nut butter, or protein powder to make it more filling.
- Best enjoyed immediately; if storing, keep in a sealed container in the fridge up to 24 hours and shake/stir before drinking.
