A quick, fresh, and filling smoothie bowl featuring mixed berries, creamy protein, and crunchy granola, perfect for a nourishing breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mixed fresh or frozen berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (use dairy-free coconut yogurt for vegan option)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 handful fresh spinach (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/3 cup crunchy granola (preferably with nuts and seeds)
  • Extra fresh berries for garnish
  • Chia seeds or hemp hearts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Measure out 1 cup of mixed berries, 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1/2 cup almond milk, and if using, a handful of spinach and a teaspoon of honey.
  2. Add berries, yogurt, protein powder, almond milk, spinach, and honey into a high-speed blender.
  3. Blend on high for about 45 seconds until smooth. If too thick, add a splash more almond milk; if too thin, add a few frozen berries or ice cubes.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness as needed.
  5. Pour the smoothie base evenly into two serving bowls.
  6. Sprinkle about 1/3 cup of crunchy granola on top of each bowl.
  7. Scatter extra fresh berries and optional chia seeds or hemp hearts for garnish.
  8. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of creamy smoothie and crunchy granola.

Notes

Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy. Freeze berries ahead or add ice cubes for extra creaminess. Use vanilla protein powder for best flavor. Can substitute dairy-free yogurt and protein powder for vegan version.
