Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup frozen mixed berries (105g)
  • 1/2 small frozen banana (50g)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (120g) I used 2% Fairlife to up the protein
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (112g) can sub for Greek yogurt or more milk
  • 1 Tbsp ground flax (7g) see notes
  • 1/4 tsp liquid stevia or about 2 tbsp maple syrup (sweeten to taste)
  • 2 tsp peanut butter (10g) divided
  • 1 tsp grape jelly (7g)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the frozen mixed berries, banana, milk, cottage cheese, ground flax, sweetener and one teaspoon of peanut butter to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
  2. Taste. If needed, add more sweetener. To thin, add a little more milk, to thicken, add more frozen berries or ice and reblend.
  3. Smear remaining peanut butter and grape jelly along the sides of a tall glass jar. Pour smoothie into glass. Top with extra jelly or mixed berries if desired and enjoy!

Notes

  • Frozen berries: the mixed berry blend adds more complexity to this smoothie (versus using any single berry variation) but you can also use frozen strawberries, frozen raspberries or frozen blueberries.

  • Ground flax: not only does it add fiber but adding ground flax to smoothies also makes them taste better by creating a more luscious texture! Make sure flax seeds are ground or it won’t work. In a pinch you can sub with hemp seeds or chia seeds.

  • Liquid stevia: I love using liquid stevia to make this smoothie as sweet as I like without adding extra carbohydrates (too many carbs at once and I just feel lethargic which is the opposite I want to feel with this smoothie!) There is no weird artificial taste with this liquid stevia (just don’t over do with how much you add). You can also maple syrup here or another liquid sweetener. Stevia is much sweetener than regular sweeteners so adjust accordingly. Stevia Equivalency Chart
