Fun Smoothies for the Whole Family

Morning off to a rough start? Have no idea of what to make for breakfast? Try these fun smoothies the whole family will love!

Now that school is back in session, it feels like our time has been stretched to capacity. Making breakfast should not be an added challenge.

Try these two easy smoothie recipes to help get your day off to a smooth start.

Cocoa Loco Smoothies

This chocolate banana smoothie is a crowd favorite in our house. Just five simple ingredients are all you need!

Ingredients:

Two bananas
Peanut Butter
Chocolate almond milk
Greek Yogurt
Ice

Before we had chocolate almond milk, we used vanilla almond milk. In addition, we used a pack of cocoa powder from a hot chocolate mix. Listen! Somedays you have to improvise!

Now, if you want to be extra (because why not!) add some avocado for some healthy fats! Try a scoop of your favorite protein powder or supplement.

Directions:

In your blender layer your two bananas, two tablespoons of peanut butter (or your favorite nut butter), one cup of almond milk, three tablespoons of Greek yogurt and a cup of ice.

Blend on high until smooth. Depending on the consistency of your preference, add more liquid as you desire.

Berry Happy Smoothies

This is our second favorite. Again, very simple to make and under ten minutes to prep. Don’t forget, you can even use these recipes to make into your favorite smoothie bowls.

Ingredients:

Bag of frozen berry mix (we get ours from Aldi)
Greek Yogurt
Chia seeds
Water (or juice if preferred)
Ice

Now, for the berry smoothie, we refrain from using almond milk as a base. Using water is our preference, you can also use a fruit juice for added flavor.

Depending on your sweet tooth, you can also add a swirl of honey for some added pizazz.
