This healthy Strawberry Blueberry Banana Smoothie recipe makes a fabulous low calorie breakfast or snack for the whole family.
Another one of my favorite go-to breakfast or afternoon snacks is a healthy strawberry blueberry banana smoothie. These with a few Maple Cinnamon Roasted Chickpeas are the best!
My kids absolutely love them too and I love getting in more fruits for them this easy way. You can could even sneak in a little fresh spinach as well.
I sometimes add a scoop of unflavored or vanilla a protein powder if I want a more complete meal option.
I keep a bag of frozen blueberries and strawberries in my freezer always. Bananas freeze easily as well if you have some that are getting too ripe. Just place them in a freezer bag with or without the peel still on. The peel will turn extra brown when frozen but that is completely okay. Just take them out when ready to use.
You can use any milk you prefer with this recipe. In addition to regular cow’s milk, you can substitute almond milk, cashew milk, rice milk, coconut milk, soy milk or oat milk.
Using frozen fruit makes it so you don’t need to add any additional ice if that’s your preference. I
Strawberry Blueberry Banana Smoothie Ingredients
Enough for 1 smoothie. I typically always double this to make 2 smoothies. 🙂
½ cup of Milk
¼ cup of non-fat plain yogurt (Greek or Regular)
¼ cup of frozen blueberries
5 frozen strawberries
1 Banana
1 cup of ice if not using frozen fruit.
How to Make a Strawberry Blueberry Banana Smoothie
1. Add milk and yogurt to the blender. I do this first because it blends the frozen fruit easier. (if using ice, place it in first)
2. Add banana, strawberries and blueberries.
3. Blend for 60 seconds or until blended to desired consistency.

I freeze chopped up bananas all the time for açaí bowls (although I cannot wait to use them in this recipe) and they’re perfectly fine when I’m ready to use them. I put the banana pieces in ziploc bags. Works great. 🙂

I wrapped my bananas in plastic and they continued to ripen. I froze my bananas in the skin and when I opened them they had dissolved into p u r e liquid. Just saying.
