Ingredients for a Chocolate Covered Strawberry Protein Smoothie

Only 3 ingredients are needed for this easy recipe:

  • Strawberries: The strawberries can be frozen or fresh. Using frozen strawberries will give the smoothie a much thicker texture. I like to purchase strawberries from the freezer section in the grocery store to keep on hand for smoothies. Another option is to buy fresh strawberries on sale, remove the stems/ leaves and freeze to use for later.
  • Milk: You can also use any milk you prefer. Almond milk, coconut milk, vegan milks, regular milk, vanilla almond milk and more… all will work perfectly in this recipe. While water can be used if you prefer it will change the texture of this recipe and the smoothie will not be as creamy.

That’s all you will need to make this delicious and healthy smoothie. Simply combine your ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth then serve immediately. See the recipe card below for measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good blender to use for making smoothies?

I’ve used lots of different blenders and had a bullet for years however I have since fallen in love with my ninja blender. It crushes frozen fruit and ice no problem. Plus, it comes with a food processor attachment and 2 individual sized cups. A good blender can make a huge difference in how your smoothies come out.

Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?

This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately after blending. Making it ahead of time will result it a different consistency and separation.
