Ingredients
Frozen strawberries (1 cup)
Ripe banana (1 medium, spotty)
Milk (1/2 cup)
Greek yogurt (1/2 cup)
Spinach (1 handful, optional)
Honey or maple syrup (1 tablespoon, optional)
Chia seeds or peanut butter (1 tablespoon, optional)
Instructions
1-Add liquid first: Pour 1/2 cup milk into the blender to help blades move freely.
2-Pile in frozen strawberries: Add 1 cup unsweetened frozen strawberries on top.
3-Add banana and yogurt: Break a spotty banana into chunks and drop in along with 1/2 cup Greek yogurt.
4-Boost if you like: Optionally toss in a handful of spinach, a tablespoon of chia seeds, or a drizzle of honey.
5-Blend until smooth: Start on low, then ramp up to high. Blend for 30 to 45 seconds, scraping down sides if needed.
6-Check the texture: If too thick, add a splash of milk; if too thin, blend in a few more frozen strawberries or half a frozen banana.
7-Pour and enjoy immediately: Serve in a tall glass. The frosty, creamy texture is best right away.

💡 Use frozen strawberries for a thick, frosty texture without watering down the drink with ice.
💡 Spotty, overripe bananas bring plenty of natural sweetness so you can skip added sugar.
💡 For a dairy-free version, swap Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt or add an extra half banana for creaminess.
