Healthy Strawberry Smoothie
This strawberry smoothie is delicious, super healthy, and the perfect option to keep you satisfied. It's just like a strawberry milkshake, but it won't make you feel guilty.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries (about 7 medium/large)
- ½ cup finely chopped cauliflower (frozen or fresh)
- ½ cup coconut milk
- ¼ cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoon erythritol, monk fruit or sweetener of choice (see notes about sweeteners)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients into a blender and blend until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.If your cauliflower was not previously chopped or is frozen, you can blend it first with milk, and then add the other ingredients and blend it again. This will ensure that you don't have pieces of cauliflower in your vitamin.
Notes
* Don't worry about the cauliflower. It will make your vitamin even healthier and it leaves no taste at all. You can't even tell that it's there.
* I like erythritol and monk fruit because they don't have an aftertaste, but if you don't have them you can use regular sugar. If you prefer to use another type of sweetener, add it gradually and try it out. Some sweeteners are much stronger and have an aftertaste, so add it with caution.
* Honey gives this smoothie a special touch, so try not to replace it.
* If you use frozen strawberry and/or frozen cauliflower, your smoothie will be even more cold and creamy, like a milkshake.
* You can use plain regular yogurt if you don't have Greek yogurt, but Greek yogurt makes the smoothie creamier.
* The blend of coconut milk and almond milk (or regular milk) helps to keep a balanced flavor. Using just coconut milk can overpower the strawberry flavor.
