Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- ¼ cup dried goji berries (soaked 10 minutes if firm)
- 1 frozen banana
- ½ cup frozen strawberries or mango
- ½ cup yogurt (dairy or non-dairy)
- ½ cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tsp chia seeds (optional boost)
Instructions
- Soften Goji Berries: If your goji berries are firm, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes to soften, then drain thoroughly to prepare for blending.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the softened goji berries, frozen banana, your choice of frozen strawberries or mango, yogurt, almond milk or preferred milk, and honey or maple syrup into the blender.
- Blend Smoothly: Blend all ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring that no chunks remain for a perfect smoothie texture.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy fresh to benefit from its full flavor and nutritional value.
Notes
- For extra protein, add a scoop of collagen or vanilla protein powder.
- Make it vegan by using dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
- If the texture is too thick, add more milk until desired consistency is reached.
- Add spinach for a hidden greens boost — the fruity flavor remains dominant.
