2 tablespoons (or to taste)
Greek yogurt
1 cup
Banana
1 ripe
Papaya
1 cup, diced
Kiwi
2, peeled and chopped

Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing your fruits: peel and chop the kiwi, dice the papaya, and peel the banana.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the chopped kiwi, diced papaya, banana, Greek yogurt, honey, and ice cubes.
  3. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Tips

  • 💡 You can substitute honey with agave syrup or maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • 💡 Add a handful of spinach or kale for an extra nutrient boost without altering the flavor significantly.
