- Blend: Secure the blender lid tightly and blend on high speed until the smoothie becomes completely smooth and creamy, with no chunks remaining.

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.
