Additions and Substitutions Ideas
This strawberry smoothie recipe can be in a variety of ways. Here are some delicious additions or substitution to fit into in healthy diet.
- Milk – Substitute the water for milk. You can use dairy-free milk options such as oat milk, coconut milk or almond milk. If adding juice, apple juice and orange juice work great.
- Add-Ins – Add in vanilla extract, chia seeds, spinach or kale.
- Sweetener – If you prefer your classic strawberry banana smoothie recipe to be sweeter, add in a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
- Fruit – You can use frozen fruit or fresh fruit. We like a thicker smoothie, so we like using frozen fruit. Plus it last longer.
- Without Yogurt – You can make this smoothie without yogurt if you prefer. Add in protein to still get the extra boost of protein. You may just need to use less water or liquid of your choice.
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1 – First, put the liquid and the yogurt in the blender. I always like to put the liquid in first because I feel like it blends together better.
Step 2 – Second, top it all off with the frozen bananas and frozen strawberries.
Step 3 – Now, blend everything until smooth.
Step 4 – Finally, add ice if you need it to make a thick smoothie or colder. Blend again until it is the desired consistency.
Recipe Tips
- Blending – Sometimes you need to blend it once more to get any extra “chunks” out of it.
- Adding Ingredients – We recommend adding the fresh or frozen fruit first and then the liquid.
- Consistency – If you blender gets stuck and doesn’t blend, you may need to add a little more liquid. This will help the blender to blend.
Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend using a Vitamix Blender when blending delicious smoothies. But any blender will work to make a smoothie.
Smoothies are best served what right making it. You can meal prep the fruit and additions in a zip lock baggies and store in the freezer. Then when ready to prepare add the ingredients to the blender with the liquid and blend.
