Ingredients
- ½ cup vanilla yogurt (see notes)
- 1 cup frozen strawberries (with no added sugar)
- ½ frozen banana , sliced
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
- ¾ cup milk of choice
Instructions
- In a high-speed blender, combine the yogurt, strawberries, banana, ground flax seeds, and milk. Secure the lid and blend until smooth.
- Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender, if needed. Once the smoothie has no visible chunks, give it a taste and make any adjustments, as needed. You can add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, for sweetness, or add a handful of ice for a slushy texture.
- Serve the smoothie immediately for the best flavor and texture. If you have any leftovers, pour them into a popsicle mold and freeze them for a frozen treat in the future.

Notes
- Nutrition information is for the whole batch. This information is automatically calculated using generic ingredients, so it's just an estimate, not a guarantee.
- Yogurt Note: This recipe was tested with vanilla goat's milk yogurt by Redwood Hill Farm. If you use plain Greek yogurt, it will have a more tangy, sour flavor, so you might want to add extra sweetener in that case.
- Customize It: Feel free to add any other extras you love, like a scoop of protein powder, or a few tablespoons of rolled oats. Leave out the ground flaxseeds if you don't keep them on hand. This smoothie is easy to change based on what you have on hand.
