Using frozen fruit in homemade smoothies takes the guesswork out of what’s in season and available and what isn’t. I love that the frozen fruit adds a coldness and thickness to make this a delicious creamy smoothie.

Protein powder is optional, and personal preference. I often try different brands to see which I like and don’t like. Lately, I’ve been using this vegan protein powder with minimal ingredients. It’s organic and clean and adds a nice subtle vanilla flavor to your healthy protein smoothie recipes. You can find it online here: vanilla protein powder

When it comes to almond milk, I prefer plain unsweetened almond milk, but you can use unsweetened vanilla almond milk or even any non-dairy milk of your choice. Cashew milk is an easy swap for almond milk. It is another dairy-free milk option that I use often. This is my favorite almond milk.

You will also need a high speed blender. I have this Vitamix blender, and I love it. It’s available online here: Vitamix Blender. There are also many different blenders available online for different price ranges, and abilities. You can find those here: Blenders

Lastly, add the half of banana to the blender. You may use a frozen banana if you slice and freeze it in advance, otherwise, a ripe banana is perfect. Only use half of the banana.

Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until smooth. If the smoothie is too thick you can add up to 1/2 cup of water to the blender 

Pour into a tall glass.
