Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups cubed, frozen watermelon
- 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or vegan yogurt for dairy-free)
Instructions
- Place the frozen watermelon cubes, frozen strawberries, frozen banana, lime juice, and yogurt into your blender.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.

- Pour the smoothie into a glass immediately and serve.
Notes
- For an extra boost of protein, add one scoop of your preferred vanilla protein powder.
- If you do not have frozen watermelon, use fresh watermelon and add 1/2 cup of ice cubes to achieve a cold, thick texture.
- This recipe is naturally sweet, but you can add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup if your fruit is not very ripe.
