This deliciously refreshing smoothie is packed with frozen fruit, protein, and just a touch of honey for that “pick-me-up” you need mid-afternoon. Give it a try instead of reaching for cookies or another cup of coffee.
You will LOVE this Smoothie!
At first glance, the ingredient combination might sound a bit odd, but don’t knock it until you’ve tried it!
If you love smoothies like my family does, you must try this combination of fruits…. we’ve all agreed it’s one of the best smoothie recipes I’ve come up with to date.
It’s perfect when you need an extra shot of energy and oomph on “one of those days”. And it’s quite healthful, too — and a great way to use up bananas and grapes that are a little over-ripe!
Ingredients for Pick-me-up Smoothies
- 2 frozen bananas (I like to freeze mine chopped, though you can freeze them whole)
- 1 cup frozen red grapes
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1 Tbps. honey
How to Make this Smoothie
1. Add frozen fruit to a high-power blender (we use a Vita-Mix).
2. Add milk, yogurt, and honey.
3. Blend on high until thoroughly blended and smooth.
4. Pour smoothie mixture into 3 glasses or mugs.
NOTE: I’m not sure how the grapes would blend in a regular blender. If you try it, let us know!
This smoothie is great as a quick breakfast for busy mornings, a mid-morning pick-me-up, a protein-packed after-school snack, or even a fun evening treat after the kids go to bed!
