- Strawberries: Choose frozen for a thicker texture or fresh if that's what you have.
- Yogurt: Opt for full-fat or plant-based yogurt for vegan friendly version, whatever suits your preference.

Strawberry Smoothie
Ingredients
- 1½ cup Strawberries, frozen
- ¼ cup Yogurt, full fat
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 tsp Brown Sugar, optional
Instructions
To make Strawberry Smoothie
- Begin by adding the frozen strawberries, yogurt, milk, and a touch of brown sugar to your blender. If you're using fresh strawberries, a few ice cubes can help thicken your smoothie.
- Secure the lid tightly to prevent any spills, and blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth. If your smoothie is too thick, add a bit more milk until you reach your desired consistency. If it's too thin, more frozen strawberries or a handful of ice can thicken it up.
- Once you've achieved a smooth texture, carefully pour the smoothie into your favorite serving glass.
- For a delightful finish, garnish with thin slices of strawberry, fresh or frozen, adding a burst of color and flavor to your smoothie.
Serving
- Serve this nutritious and refreshing Strawberry Smoothie for breakfast or as a quick pick-me-up snack.

Chef's Notes and Tips
- Mix in Other Fruits: While strawberries are fantastic on their own, feel free to blend in bananas, blueberries, mangos, peaches, or pineapples for a new twist.
- Add Some Greens: Toss in some spinach or kale to sneak in extra nutrients without compromising taste.
- Boost with Healthy Fats: A spoonful of peanut or almond butter can add a creamy texture and a dose of healthy fats.
- Sweeten Smartly: If your strawberries aren't as sweet as you'd like, a little honey, maple syrup, or your preferred sweetener can brighten the flavor. Start with a small amount and adjust to taste.
- Boost with Protein: For an extra protein kick, consider adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder. It's a great way to turn your smoothie into a more filling meal replacement or post-workout drink.
- Chill Your Glass: Serving your smoothie in a chilled glass can keep it cooler and more refreshing for longer, especially on hot days.
