Description

This creamy, healthy 5 ingredient smoothie tastes like an orange julius and a creamsicle pop combined. Vitamin C has never tasted so good!


Ingredients

  • 1 frozen ripe banana, previously peeled & sliced
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 3/4 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1 orange, peeled and sliced
  • optional: 2 teaspoons orange zest

Instructions

  1. Make sure you have a strong, powerful blender to break down the frozen banana and orange. I like this smaller Ninja or this regular Ninja blender.
  2. On high, blend the frozen banana chunks, vanilla, and orange juice together until thick, creamy, and smooth – about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Add the yogurt, orange, and orange zest (if using). Blend until combined.

Notes

  1. Special Tools (affiliate links): Blender (I like this smaller Ninja or this regular Ninja blender)
  2. For an extra nutrition punch, try adding 1 cup of your favorite greens like kale or spinach!
