Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon erythritol (optional)
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients: 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries, 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, 1 tablespoon of erythritol (if desired), and ice cubes (if you prefer a colder smoothie).
- In a blender, pour in 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk. This will serve as the base of your smoothie and keep it low in carbs.
- Add 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries to the blender. Frozen blueberries not only add natural sweetness but also give your smoothie a nice, thick texture.
- Next, add 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt. This will add creaminess and a good source of protein to your smoothie.
- Incorporate 1 tablespoon of chia seeds into the mixture. Chia seeds are a great source of fiber and will help thicken the smoothie while providing additional nutrients.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add 1 tablespoon of erythritol. This is a low-carb sweetener that won't spike your blood sugar levels.
- If you like your smoothies icy and chilled, throw in a few ice cubes into the blender.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 30-60 seconds.
- Once blended, taste the smoothie. If desired, adjust sweetness by adding more erythritol or a few more blueberries.
- Pour the smoothie into two glasses and enjoy immediately. You can also garnish with a few extra blueberries or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top for added texture.
Tips
- * Make sure to use frozen blueberries to get the perfect thick texture and natural sweetness. * Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more or less erythritol. * Add a few extra ice cubes if you prefer a thicker, colder smoothie. * Experiment with different toppings such as extra blueberries, chia seeds, or even a sprinkle of granola for added texture and flavor. * Prepare the smoothie in advance and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours for a quick and easy breakfast or snack on-the-go.
