Frozen berries
Fresh berries

Tips

  • Milk and yoghurt provide calcium. Calcium is needed for healthy bones and teeth.  
  • Berries provide fibre. Fibre helps you keep fuller for longer. 
  • You can make this dairy free by using soy or oat milk and a dairy free yoghurt. 

  • Freeze over–ripe bananas to use in smoothies – frozen bananas make a thicker smoothie.
  • Buy ‘Odd Bunch’, ‘I’m Perfect’ or ‘Imperfect Picks’ bananas to help reduce food waste 

  • This is great to make when fresh berries and bananas are on special or if they are a bit soft. 
  • Compare prices per 100g to get the best value for money. This information is on the supermarket price tag. It can be cheaper to buy a larger tub of yoghurt. 

Method

Step 1
Place all ingredients in a blender and process on high until smooth.

Note: Makes 2 kid sized smoothies.

Serving suggestion: Add 2 teaspoons of chia seeds and 1 tablespoon of desiccated coconut for a more filling smoothie.
