  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Method: Stovetop
  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup baby spinach
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Gather all listed ingredients and ensure frozen strawberries are ready to use. If using fresh strawberries, wash and hull them, then consider adding a few ice cubes for a colder drink.
  2. Step 2: Carefully add the frozen strawberries, almond milk, Greek yogurt, rolled oats, chia seeds, ripe banana, baby spinach, and alcohol-free vanilla extract into a high-speed blender.
  3. Step 3: Secure the blender lid and blend on high speed for 60-90 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy with no visible chunks of fruit or spinach.
  4. Step 4: Taste the drink and adjust consistency or sweetness if desired. If too thick, add a splash more almond milk; if not sweet enough, add a small amount of honey or maple syrup and blend again briefly.
  5. Step 5: Pour the healthy strawberry breakfast drink into a glass. Serve immediately to enjoy its fresh, cool, and creamy texture.

Notes

  • Enjoy this vibrant drink immediately for the freshest, coolest texture. If you have any leftovers, pop them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours; it will thicken significantly due to the oats and chia, so a splash of extra almond milk and a good stir will refresh it perfectly.
  • For an extra touch of elegance and nutrition, try garnishing your glass with a few fresh strawberry slices, a sprinkle of toasted rolled oats, or a vibrant sprig of mint before serving. It elevates both the look and the experience!
  • The ripeness of your banana truly impacts the final taste and creaminess; aim for one with a few brown spots for optimal natural sweetness and a luxuriously smooth texture.
  • Don't hesitate to include that baby spinach! Its flavor is completely masked by the strawberries and banana, offering a hidden nutritional punch without altering the delicious taste of your breakfast drink.
