Ingredients Method Nutrition Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain kefir or probiotic yogurt
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries blueberries, strawberries, raspberries
  • 1 medium ripe banana frozen for thicker texture
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 cup fresh spinach packed
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey optional, for sweetness
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated, optional

Method
 

  1. Gather all ingredients and ensure frozen fruits are ready. If using fresh banana, slice and freeze for at least 2 hours beforehand for best texture.
  2. Pour the kefir and almond milk into your blender first. This helps the blender blades move smoothly and prevents ingredients from sticking.
  3. Add the spinach, frozen berries, banana, flaxseed, chia seeds, and grated ginger if using. Add honey if you prefer a sweeter smoothie.
  4. Blend on high speed for 45-60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down sides if needed.
  5. If the smoothie is too thick, add more almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time. If too thin, add more frozen fruit or a few ice cubes and blend again.
  6. Pour into glasses and serve right away for maximum probiotic benefits and freshness. Optionally garnish with extra chia seeds or berries on top.

Notes

For best probiotic benefits, use high-quality kefir with live active cultures and consume immediately after blending. You can prep smoothie packs by portioning all dry and frozen ingredients into freezer bags, then just add kefir and blend when ready. The chia seeds will thicken the smoothie as it sits, so drink within 15 minutes or add extra liquid if storing.
