Ingredients
Fruits
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 ripe banana (fresh or frozen)
- 1 medium orange, peeled
Liquids
- ¾-1 cup unsweetened almond milk, plus more to thin if necessary
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all fruits—frozen strawberries, ripe banana, and peeled orange—and measure the almond milk.
- Blend Smoothie: Add the frozen strawberries, banana, orange, and ¾ cup of unsweetened almond milk to a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, gradually add more almond milk until the desired consistency is reached.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately. This recipe yields two servings; feel free to halve the ingredients for one serving.
Notes
- If you don’t like bananas, substitute with 1 cup frozen pineapple for a different flavor profile.
- For added protein, optionally add ½ cup plain Greek yogurt. When adding yogurt, reduce almond milk to ½ cup total, then add more as needed to thin the smoothie.
- To prep and store smoothies, consider using methods like ice cube trays, mason jars, or freezer packs for convenience.
