Ingredients

  • Strawberries – Frozen or fresh strawberries work great. 
  • Banana – Frozen and sliced or just frozen work great. 
  • Milk – I used Fairlife milk. Use any type of milk you like such as nondairy milk, coconut milk or soy milk. 
  • Yogurt – I love using Greek yogurt in my smoothies. 
  • Honey – Honey or agave syrup is optional to add a little sweetness. You can also use a little maple syrup if you prefer.

Instructions

In a blender, combine frozen strawberries, banana, milk, yogurt and honey. Blend until fully smooth. Serve with an optional garnish of Strawberry Shortcake Crunch or a fresh strawberry.

Tips for Making

  • Natural Sweetness – We love a natural sweetener. My favorite ways to add sweetness to a smoothie are honey, agave, maple syrup or a pitted date. 
  • Healthy Boosts – Add a spoonful of collagen powder, some ground flax seeds, a scoop of sea moss gel, liquid hyaluronic acid or chia seeds to add some fiber. You may also add a scoop of protein powder if you like. 
  • Vegan – If you want to make this into a vegan recipe, choose a dairy-free milk (such as oat milk, almond milk or cashew milk), use a vegan yogurt (such as coconut yogurt) and replace honey with agave syrup. 
  • Other Fruits – Add a scoop of frozen raspberries, frozen blueberries or frozen mango to create a different flavor.
  • Creamy Texture – Make sure your blender blade is sharp. I use my blender almost daily so every few years I need to purchase a new blender pitcher with a fresh blade.
