Strawberry protein smoothie

The Strawberry Protein Smoothie is a delicious and nutritious way to start your day or replenish your energy post-workout. Packed with protein from whey powder and Greek yogurt, and rich in vitamins from strawberries and bananas, this smoothie provides a perfect balance of flavor and health benefits.

Ingredients:

1 scoop whey protein powder
30g
1 cup frozen strawberries
150g
1/2 banana
60g
1 cup milk (3.25% fat)
240g
2/3 cup greek yogurt
110g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Ensure all your ingredients are measured and ready. Slice the half banana for easier blending.
2. Blending:
- In a blender, first add the frozen strawberries. This will help them blend more easily when you add the other ingredients.
- Next, add the sliced banana.
- Pour in the milk. The liquid helps facilitate smooth blending.
- Scoop in the Greek yogurt for creaminess and additional protein.
- Finally, add the scoop of whey protein powder on top.
3. Blend:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Start blending on a low setting and gradually increase to high. Blend until smooth and creamy, making sure there are no lumps of fruit or protein powder remaining. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
4. Adjust Consistency (Optional):
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a bit more milk, about a tablespoon at a time, and blend briefly to mix.
- If it's too thin, add a few more frozen strawberries or a little more Greek yogurt and blend again.
5. Serve:
- Pour the smoothie into a glass.
- If desired, garnish with a strawberry slice or a banana slice on the rim.
6. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately while the smoothie is fresh and cold.

Tips:

- Ensure that you use a high-quality whey protein powder to optimize the protein intake and flavor.

- Using frozen strawberries helps to thicken the smoothie and give it a refreshing texture.

- For an extra boost of nutrients, consider adding a handful of spinach or a tablespoon of chia seeds to the mix.

- You can adjust the thickness of the smoothie by adding more or less milk, depending on your preference.

- If you like your smoothie a bit sweeter, you can add a teaspoon of honey, maple syrup, or a few drops of stevia.

This Strawberry Protein Smoothie is an easy-to-make, delightful drink that is both satisfying and good for you. With simple ingredients and a few blending steps, you can enjoy a perfect blend of protein, vitamins, and taste any time of the day.
