Every family needs one smoothie that everyone agrees on, and this is it. Sweet strawberries and banana, creamy yogurt and a splash of vanilla make a smoothie that tastes like a strawberry milkshake.
It’s also a great first recipe for little chefs: kids can count the strawberries, add the ingredients and press the button (with a grown-up nearby).
Why It’s Good for You
Strawberries are packed with vitamin C, bananas provide potassium, and Greek yogurt and milk supply protein and calcium for growing bones, all without added sugar.

Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Add the milk, Greek yogurt and vanilla to the blender.
- Add the banana and frozen strawberries.
- Blend on high until smooth and pink, about 45 seconds.
- Pour into two cups and serve with a fun straw.
Notes
- Kids helping? Let them peel the banana and add the strawberries, while an adult handles the blender.
- Ice pops: pour leftovers into ice-pop molds and freeze for a healthy summer treat.
- Sneak in veggies: a handful of spinach turns it purple-brown but adds nutrients without changing the taste much. Try 1/2 cup frozen cauliflower rice instead to keep it pink.
