Strawberry Smoothie With Greek Yogurt (Print Page)

Creamy blend of fresh strawberries and Greek yogurt, ready in 5 minutes for a nutritious breakfast or snack.

# What You Need:

01 - 1½ cups fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled

02 - 1 small ripe banana, peeled

03 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

04 - ½ cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

05 - 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup, to taste

06 - ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

07 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed

01 - Place strawberries, banana, Greek yogurt, milk, and sweetener (if using) into blender container.

02 - Add vanilla extract and chia or flaxseeds if desired for extra nutrition.

03 - Blend on high speed until completely smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down sides of blender if needed.

04 - Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness by adding additional honey, maple syrup, or milk as preferred.

05 - Pour into two glasses and serve right away, optionally garnished with fresh strawberry slices.

01 -

Takes literally five minutes from fridge to glass, perfect for those mornings when time refuses to slow down
The Greek yogurt makes it feel substantial enough to carry you through until lunch, unlike those juice-only drinks
You can hide extra nutrition in there without anyone noticing, including yourself

02 -

Frozen strawberries make a huge difference in texture, turning this into something almost like soft-serve ice cream
Your smoothie will continue to separate as it sits, so drink it right away or give it a quick stir before finishing
Over-blending can actually make it thinner and warmer, so stop as soon as everything looks uniform

03 -

Let your frozen fruit thaw for five minutes before blending to save your blender motor from unnecessary strain
Rinse your blender immediately after pouring, or dried smoothie becomes incredibly stubborn to clean later
