1 cup fresh or frozen fruit – berries, apples, bananas, pineapple, pears, cherries. (Frozen fruit will provide a thick consistency to the smoothie).
1 cup of liquid – milk, soy beverage, almond milk, coconut water, water, or 100% fruit juice
1/2 cup of yogurt – Greek yogurt is higher in protein
Add a nutrient booster – for more protein add skim milk powder, whey protein, or ground almond flour. For additional fibre and healthy fats, add ground flax seed or hemp seed.
Step 1
Add fruit to blender container
