Strawberry Smoothie

Ingredients 

• 1 cup water or almond milk
• 1 cup frozen strawberries about 4 ounces (see note 1)
• 1 scoop protein powder or ½ cup Greek yogurt(see note 2)
• Honey to taste, optional (see note 3)

Instructions 

1. In the bottom of a blender, add water, strawberries, and protein powder or Greek yogurt. Blend until smooth. Taste and add honey if desired.

Notes

1. Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Some separation may occur, so shake or stir to combine before enjoying.
2. Strawberries: To substitute fresh strawberries (hulled), add ½ cup ice or more to the blender.
3. Protein powder: Use either your favorite vanilla protein powder or ½ cup Greek yogurt.
4. Honey: Taste the smoothie before adding any sweeteners, then start with a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup. If you use a vanilla-flavored protein powder, you probably won’t need anything.
5. Yield: This recipe makes about 2 cups of smoothie, enough for 1 serving.
