The Greek yogurt and touch of peanut butter provide plenty of protein and healthy fats to keep you feeling full and energized. And if you're looking to shed some pounds, this smoothie fits right into your weight loss plan. Plus, it's a refreshing choice for those hot summer days!
Ingredients and Substitutions Overview
To make this Greek Yogurt Smoothie, you'll need some easy-to-find ingredients that you can pick up from any local supermarket. Let's check out what you'll need.
- Greek Yogurt: I use non-fat plain Greek yogurt, but feel free to use full-fat, vanilla, or strawberry flavored for a twist in taste. Greek yogurt is not only tasty but also has full of good stuff like nutrients, calcium, and probiotics.
- Strawberries: Frozen strawberries give that thick and creamy texture, but fresh ones are great too if that's what you have.
- Banana: One medium-sized banana not only adds creaminess but also fiber and other nutrients.
- Almond Milk: You can use any milk you like, such as regular, almond, or oat milk, all of which are great for smoothies.
- Healthy Fats: I've added peanut butter for that extra boost, but almond butter works just as well.
- Oats: They're not just for filling you up, but also add fiber and protein to keep you satisfied longer.
- Sweetener: Opt for natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup for a healthier choice.

Chef's Notes and Tips
- Mix up the fruits: Besides strawberries and bananas, try adding blueberries, blackberries, or pineapple for new flavors.
- Boost it with superfoods: Toss in some ground flaxseed or chia seeds to make your smoothie even more filling.
- Consistency control: If you prefer a thicker smoothie, add less milk or throw in a few ice cubes. For a thinner smoothie, just add a bit more milk until it's just right for you.
- Sweetness to taste: Start with a small amount of sweetener and adjust according to your taste. Sometimes the natural sweetness of the fruits is enough!
- Cold ingredients: Use frozen fruits or chill your Greek yogurt and milk beforehand for an extra refreshing smoothie.
