This simple Strawberry Smoothies recipe is made with Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and strawberries is a delicious way to start your day.
I have a bit of a sweet tooth and I like to enjoy a “treat” that is packed with fruit and tastes good. This smoothie comes together quickly satisfies my craving for sweets but doesn’t leave me hungry.
Ingredients
To make it Strawberry Smoothies, you need the following ingredients:
- 1 5.3 ounce carton Yoplait Greek 100 Yogurt vanilla flavored
- 1 medium banana
- 1 cup unsweetened frozen strawberries
- 1 Tablespoon honey
- 1 Tablespoon peanut butter
- ½ cup vanilla flavored almond milk
- 2 strawberries for garnish if desired
Instructions
I use Yoplait Greek 100 calorie yogurt for the base. (Greek yogurt is high in protein which helps promote fullness.) I add a little peanut butter for additional protein, some honey for a little natural sweetness, a cup of frozen strawberries, and a medium banana which helps make the smoothie creamy.
To make the smoothies, combine all of the ingredients in a blender and pulse/blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides of blender as needed.
Pour into 2 glasses and garnish with strawberries, if desired.
You could make these for breakfast, an afternoon snack, or enjoy as a dessert.

Tips for Staying on Track
Sometimes we all need a reminder of ways to stick to our diet. Below are four tips that work for me:
- Drink water. LOTS of water. It is easy to feel “hungry” when our bodies are actually dehydrated.
- Create a playlist with music that energizes you – that makes you want to get up and GO! Put it on your smartphone, plug-in your earphones, and go for a walk.
- Buy fruit and vegetables and have them ready to go. Chop, slice, and dice then store in your fridge so that you always have something healthy to eat.
- Stock up on canned and frozen veggies. Vegetables are full of fiber and vitamins and are low in calories.

I;m equally fond of smoothies and egg based dishes for breakfast. Smoothies when I am pressed for time, Omelet, scrambles or fritatas when I have a little more time… I love new recipes for all of these 🙂
leechrista says
I’ll probably make this smoothie this week. Smoothie’s are my thing. I make them each and every day. I love that you added honey because I purchase local honey. 🙂

I love how much protein this smoothy has! I’ll have to make it for my girls, they would love it especially with the peanut butter. I also like the Green smoothie recipe made with spinach and Lime yogurt – smart!
