Course: Drinks
Cuisine: International

Ingredients

  • 1 banana medium, ripe
  • 1 cup blueberries I prefer this to fresh blueberries, frozen
  • 1 cup low fat fat-free or Greek yoghurt (use a vegan yoghurt if you are vegan)
  • 1/2 cup milk or any dairy-free milk of your choice, fat-free or full cream
  • 1 vanilla protein powder I use a whey protein powder that has 113 calories and 20grams of protein per scoop - if you are using unflavoured protein powder you can add vanilla extract, scoop
  • 1 Tbs peanut butter or almond butter or other nut butter of your choice, natural
  • 1 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 Tbsp flax meal or lightly milled flaxseeds
  • 1 Tbsp acai berry powder optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add all the ingredients to your Blender and blend until you have a smooth and creamy texture, adding more milk as needed to achieve your desired consistency.
  2. If you prefer a thicker consistency, use a frozen banana. If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add more milk. And if you want to switch things up, try adding some healthy greens like spinach or kale for an extra boost of nutrients.

Notes

  • For a smoothie on the go, transport it in a sealed smoothie cup or mason jar.
  • This smoothie is best consumed immediately. It can be stored and consumed a day later but the texture will change as a result of the chia seeds absorbing water.
