Strawberry banana protein smoothie

A Strawberry Banana Protein Smoothie is a delicious and nutritious way to start your day or refuel after a workout. Packed with protein, vitamins, and essential nutrients, this smoothie will keep you energized and satiated. It's easy to make and can be prepared in just a few minutes with a handful of ingredients.

Ingredients:

1 banana
120g
4 strawberries
50g
2 scoop whey protein powder
60g
2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
30g
1.50 cups milk (2% fat)
370g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Peel and slice the banana into smaller pieces for easier blending.
- Wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and cut them in halves if desired.
2. Add to Blender:
- Place the banana slices into the blender.
- Add the strawberries.
3. Add Protein and Dairy:
- Scoop the whey protein powder into the blender.
- Pour in the 2 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream.
- Measure and add the 1.50 cups of 2% fat milk.
4. Blend Until Smooth:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend all ingredients on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This usually takes about 1-2 minutes, depending on your blender.
5. Check Consistency:
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Blend again briefly if additional milk is added.
6. Serve Immediately:
- Pour the smoothie into glasses.
- Optionally, garnish with a strawberry on the rim or a slice of banana for a decorative touch.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately to enjoy the best flavor and texture.

Tips:

- Use a ripe banana for added sweetness and a creamier texture.

- Frozen strawberries can be used if fresh ones are not available; this will also give the smoothie a thicker consistency.

- Blend the ingredients starting at a low speed and gradually increase to high to ensure a smooth texture.

- Add a handful of ice cubes if you prefer a colder and thicker smoothie.

- Experiment with different types of whey protein powder flavors to find the one you like best.

- If you like it sweeter, add a teaspoon of honey or a sugar substitute.

With its perfect blend of fruit and protein, the Strawberry Banana Protein Smoothie is not just a tasty treat but also a nutritious one. Enjoy it as a breakfast option, a post-workout drink, or a quick snack to boost your energy levels instantly. Remember, the key is to use fresh ingredients to get the most nutrients and best flavor possible.
