ingredients
Substitutions
Strawberry – You can use fresh strawberries or frozen strawberries. Blueberries or raspberries would also work well. We also have a Blueberry Smoothie Recipe.
Banana– We haven’t tried this recipe without the banana but I’m sure it would work fine, it would just be less sweet. If you have extra bananas you need to use up, try this Healthy Banana Pancake Recipe!
Yogurt– Nonfat greek yogurt is a great way to add protein and richness to smoothies for a low amount of calories. You can substitute with dairy free yogurt or full fat yogurt. You can also skip the yogurt, but may need a little bit more almond milk.
Milk– Any milk will work in this recipe. Almond milk, Dairy, or other non dairy milks will all work.
Protein Powder– Protein powder isn’t necessary but it is recommended for this recipe. The added protein will help keep you full, rather than this just being blended fruit (sugar and carbs). Any protein powder will work. We like this protein powder best.
Frozen Fruit– You can substitute frozen fruit for fresh fruit. Substitute 1:1.
Other Add Ins– Feel free to add in other nuts or seeds to this recipe. Chia or flax seeds would make a great addition!
Greens– We love to add a handful of spinach or kale to this recipe. You can’t taste it and it’s delicious. You could also try our Green Protein Smoothie.
Frozen Cauliflower: Frozen cauliflower is relatively tasteless and helps thicken smoothies. It’s also a great way to add in sneaky veggies. 1/4 cup cauliflower rice will blend nicely in this recipe.
Strawberry Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie– Add 1/2 tablespoon of peanut butter to this recipe.
How to make a Strawberry Banana Smoothie with Yogurt
- In a blender combine all ingredients
- Blend until smooth.. that’s it!
Storage
This recipe is best to enjoy right after blending. I wouldn’t recommend storing it in the refrigerator overnight as it will separate.
Freezing: You can freeze this recipe in popsicles if you have leftovers.
We wouldn’t recommend making this smoothie ahead of time. Smoothies can separate after they sit for too long, and you’d likely need to re-mix it up. You can slice your fruit ahead of time and put it in a container in the refrigerator to save time.
What is the best blender to use to make smoothies?
Any blender will work for smoothies.
Our favorite blender is the Nutribullet. It’s under $50 and works amazing! Here’s a link to the one we have.
We also love our Vitamix, but it’s much more expensive. Here’s a link to the one we have.

Hello. Do you know how much is one serving of the smoothie? Like the measurements! Looks very good.
It makes about 3.5 cups, so just blend it up and divide in half 🙂
So refreshing!
Glad you liked it!
