Servings: 1 smoothie
Calories: 518kcal
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk I used soy milk
- 8 ounces silken tofu drained, no need to press
- 1 cup frozen fruit I used blueberries
- 1 banana fresh or frozen
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter optional
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed optional
Instructions
- Fill up the blender: Add the ingredients to the blender, starting with the liquids (non-dairy milk), followed by the silken tofu, frozen fruit, banana, and any optional ingredients like peanut butter or flaxseed.
- Blend: Blend until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more milk or water and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
Notes
- Leftover smoothie can be stored in the fridge for 1-2 days. It may change color and texture, but will still taste good. If you plan to store it, avoid adding flaxseed, as it may thicken the smoothie further.
- For longer storage, pour the smoothie into a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the fridge before enjoying.
