Strawberry smoothie

A strawberry smoothie is a delicious and nutritious way to start your day or enjoy as a refreshing snack. Packed with the natural sweetness of frozen strawberries, the creaminess of Greek yogurt, and the crunch of multi-grain oatmeal and almonds, this smoothie is both filling and satisfying. Follow this easy recipe to blend up a perfect strawberry smoothie in no time.

Ingredients:

1 cup frozen strawberries
220g
6 oz greek yogurt
170g
1 oz multi-grain oatmeal
27g
1 cup almonds
140g
1 cup milk (3.25% fat)
240g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Almonds:
- Optional Step: If desired, soak the almonds in water overnight or for at least 4 hours. This will make them easier to blend and create a smoother consistency.
2. Combine Ingredients:
- Place the frozen strawberries, Greek yogurt, multi-grain oatmeal, and almonds (drained if soaked) into the blender pitcher.
3. Add the Milk:
- Pour 1 cup of milk over the other ingredients in the blender.
4. Blend Until Smooth:
- Secure the blender lid and start blending on a low setting.
- Gradually increase the speed to high until all the ingredients are well-combined and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
5. Check Consistency:
- Stop the blender and check the consistency. If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add a bit more milk and blend again.
6. Serve:
- Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately.
7. Optional Toppings:
- Garnish with a few sliced strawberries, a sprinkle of oatmeal, or a drizzle of honey if desired.

Tips:

- Ensure your strawberries are fully frozen for a thicker consistency.

- Use plain Greek yogurt to control the sweetness and add a bit of honey or a natural sweetener if desired.

- Soak the almonds in water overnight to soften them for a smoother texture, or use almond butter as a convenient alternative.

- For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use almond milk instead of dairy milk.

- Blend the oatmeal first into a fine powder before adding the other ingredients if you prefer a smoother texture without any graininess.

Creating a delightful strawberry smoothie at home is both simple and rewarding. With just a handful of ingredients, you can enjoy a refreshing, nutritious drink that boosts your energy and keeps you full. Experiment with different variations by adding other fruits or seeds to customize your smoothie to your taste. Cheers to your delicious and healthy homemade strawberry smoothie!
