Description

Boost your mornings with this diabetes-friendly strawberry breakfast smoothie! Packed with flavor, fiber, and protein for a balanced start to your day.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 medium banana, sliced & frozen
  • 1 cup (145g) strawberries, frozen
  • 2 tbsp. rolled oats
  • 2 scoops (50g) vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tbsp. natural peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups (360ml) almond milk, unsweetened


Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients  Make sure your banana and strawberries are frozen for the ultimate creamy texture. Slice the banana into manageable chunks before freezing (trust us, your blender will thank you).
  2. Combine Ingredients in Blender  Add all ingredients—banana, strawberries, rolled oats, protein powder, peanut butter, and almond milk—to a blender.
  3. Blend Until Smooth Secure the lid and blend on a high setting for 1–2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add a splash of almond milk if the mixture is too thick for your liking.
  4. Serve and Enjoy Pour your smoothie into a tall glass, add a fun straw, and sip your way to a delicious breakfast that leaves you feeling full and energized!
  5. Pro Tip: Wash your blender immediately after making the smoothie to prevent any sticky remnants from hardening.
