Instructions:
Collect all the ingredients needed for the smoothie. Ensure that the fruits and spinach are fresh. You may use either fresh or frozen berries based on your preference.
Pour 1 cup (240g) of almond milk into your blender. This will serve as the liquid base for your smoothie.
Scoop one serving (30g) of whey protein powder and add it to the blender. This addition provides a protein boost to the smoothie.
Peel the banana and break it into chunks. Add these chunks to the blender; they will give the smoothie a creamy texture and natural sweetness.
Measure and add 2 tablespoons (18g) each of blueberries and blackberries, and 3 tablespoons (24g) of raspberries to the blender. These berries will offer a burst of flavor and a dose of antioxidants.
Measure and add 1 cup (30g) of spinach to the blender. Don't worry; the taste of spinach will be subtle but it will up the nutritional value significantly.
Finally, measure and add 1/2 oz (14g) of chia seeds. These seeds will add omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and a slight thickness to the smoothie.
Secure the lid on your blender and blend all the ingredients until smooth. This may take about 30-60 seconds, depending on your blender’s power.
If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more almond milk and blend again until the desired consistency is reached.
Pour the smoothie into a glass. If desired, you can garnish with a few extra berries or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top.
Your Supercharged Banana and Berry Smoothie is ready to enjoy! Drink it fresh for the best taste and nutritional benefits.
Tips:
- For an even creamier texture, blend in half an avocado or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, use frozen berries and banana.
- Add a teaspoon of honey or a Medjool date for extra sweetness if desired.
- Feel free to substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk such as oat milk, coconut milk, or soy milk.
- Make the smoothie more hydrating by adding a few ice cubes or a splash of coconut water.
- To enhance the nutritional value, you can add a tablespoon of flaxseeds or hemp seeds.
- Always wash your spinach and berries thoroughly before blending.
- If you’re lactose intolerant or vegan, opt for a plant-based protein powder as a substitute for whey protein.
