Ingredient notes:
Simple ingredients, no fuss! Scroll down to the recipe card for the full list of ingredients and measurements.
- Kiwi: using a ripe kiwi is best to give the smoothie a sweeter taste and so it blends nicely into the smoothie. I bought my kiwis from Sprouts because I love shopping their variety of tropical items. They have a ton of tropical produce that is great for adding into smoothies – you’ll be sure to discover new produce while you’re shopping!
- Strawberries: I recommend using frozen strawberries to help keep the smoothie thick. Fresh strawberries can work but the smoothie won’t be as thick. Frozen fruit is really key to a thick and luscious smoothie!
- Frozen Banana: a ripe banana that’s been frozen adds the perfect amount of sweetness and once again, frozen fruit makes this smoothie perfectly thick!
- Yogurt: use your favorite yogurt. I used a coconut vanilla yogurt in my smoothie! Any Greek yogurt or even a strawberry yogurt would be delicious too.
- Almond milk (or milk of choice): Feel free to use any milk you’d like. I love vanilla unsweetened almond milk, but coconut milk would also add more of a tropical and creamy texture! Adding regular milk will give you a little more protein.
- Smoothie tip: smoothies need a perfect blend of liquid and solid ingredients to achieve the right texture. I like a thick smoothie! If you prefer a thinner consistency, add more milk.
- Ripe avocado: adding avocado is ideal for adding a creamy consistency to smoothies. It’s mild in flavor but bursting with healthy fats.
I love purchasing my ingredients at Sprouts because…
- It’s convenient and close to my home!
- They always have a great selection of fresh produce and all the natural products I need.
- Sprouts is affordable and I can shop there within my budget.
Step by step directions:
Making this Strawberry Kiwi smoothie couldn’t be easier! Once you’ve gathered all ingredients this smoothie recipe comes together in seconds for a quick breakfast, snack or afternoon treat!
- Add all ingredients to a high-powered blender (I love my Vitamix!)
- Blend until smooth, for about a minute or until perfectly smooth & creamy.
- Pour into glasses, garnish and enjoy.
Tips & Variations:
- Add in nutritional boosters like ground flaxseed, chia seeds, hemp seeds or a scoop of your favorite protein powder!
- Add in veggies if you’d like: a handful of spinach or frozen cauliflower would be perfect additions.
- Adjust your smoothie: add more liquid if you prefer it more on the thinner side or add more frozen bananas to thicken it up!
- Taste and adjust: add a touch of honey if you feel like it needs to be sweeter.
- Use ripe bananas: using frozen ripe bananas will help give the smoothie the perfect amount of natural sweetness.
- Use frozen fruit: this helps to keep this strawberry kiwi smoothie thick and cold.
- If you don’t have a ripe avocado or don’t prefer it in your smoothie, you can add more frozen bananas or yogurt for extra creaminess. The smoothie will still be yummy without it!
