Ingredients

Fruits

  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries

Dairy & Protein

  • 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 1 cup skim milk

Others

  • 1 tablespoon flax seeds (optional)


Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients: Place 1 banana, 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese, 1 cup frozen blueberries, 2 scoops vanilla protein powder, 1 tablespoon flax seeds (if using), and 1 cup skim milk into a high-powered blender.
  2. Blend: Secure the blender lid tightly and blend on high speed until the smoothie becomes completely smooth and creamy, with no chunks remaining.
  3. Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Using frozen blueberries keeps the smoothie cold without needing ice, which can dilute the flavor.
  • Flax seeds add omega-3 fatty acids and extra fiber; they can be omitted if desired.
  • For a sweeter smoothie, consider adding a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
  • Substitute skim milk with almond milk or any other milk alternative for a dairy-free version.
  • Ensure the protein powder is vanilla flavored to complement the fruit and dairy flavors.
