Roasted Strawberry Protein Smoothie
Roasted strawberries in this protein packed smoothie brings out their amazing natural flavor, made with creamy cottage cheese and added chia seeds – what a great way to start the day!
Roasted Strawberry Protein Smoothie
Roasted Strawberry Protein SmoothieI love healthy smoothies to start off my day. A few of my favorites are Chia Watermelon Fresco, Superfood Smoothie (Kale, Banana, Hemp, Chia), and Very Berry Banana Fro-yo Shake.
I discovered a new way to add protein to my smoothies… cottage cheese! This is a great discovery for me because I’m not a fan of the tang of yogurt in my smoothies. Cottage cheese makes it creamy with no tang, and has more protein than yogurt so it’s perfect! I also love adding chia seeds to my smoothies which is an excellent source of fiber and omega-3’s which is available at Target.
I’m sooo excited to review my new Vitamix blender for the first time. Wow, what power this blender has. And guess what… it’s now available at Target! And Target is giving one away to a lucky winner!! All you have to do is leave a comment here and share your favorite smoothie recipe along with a way I can reach you if you win (email, twitter, Instagram). That’s it, easy!! Good luck!!
RULES: Giveaway is provided by Target and the Target Inner Circle and will run
until Monday evening, March 31, 2014 open to all U.S. residents 18 years
and older. A winner will be chosen at random using Random.org. Chosen
winner must respond within 48 hours of notification to claim their prize
or another shall be chosen. Good luck!

Nutrition
My favorite smoothie recipe is similar to a favorite sandwich of mine—
PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA SMOOTHIE
1 frozen ripe banana cut into pieces
3/4 cup milk
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
2 tablespoons PB2, peanut butter powder
1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt
Any amounts can vary with your taste.
I absolutely love Gina’s PB&J recipe. YUM!
3/4 cup frozen blueberries, put your blueberries in the freezer!
3/4 cup sliced fresh strawberries
3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, I used Almond Breeze
1 tbsp peanut butter
5 to 6 drops liquid stevia or sweetener of your choice, NuNaturals Vanilla
1/4 cup ice
I have been playing with matcha lately. Matcha, spinach, oat milk, bananas, ice. No exact amounts, just throw and go. Now reading the chia seeds maybe I will add that! Thanks for the opportunity!
Love it!
This is yummy and creamy.
It was ok
I’ve been trying to add more protein to my diet too, but I’ve never thought to try cottage cheese. Can’t wait to try this idea!
My favorite smoothie recipe:
The “Unmargarita”
– 1/2c unsweetened vanilla almond milk
-2T nonfat Greek Yogurt
-1/4 English cucumber
-2 stalks celery
-1oz avocado
-1/2 lime
-1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
-1/8t cayenne pepper
-1/2c fresh spinach
-1/2c frozen mango cubes
-1/2c ice
-top with 1t chia seeds (optional)
I knew there was a reason I just bought strawberries and cottage cheese. My favorite smoothie recipe is a pear and oatmeal smoothie with yogurt. But I also regularly make your recipe for peanut butter and jelly smoothie.
As I am a newbie to smoothies, I don’t have a favorite recipe. If I win the blender, that would certainly give me the incentive to do smoothies.
My go to smoothie
2 cups of frozen mixed berries
1 cup oat bran powder
2cups fresh baby spinach (optional).
1 large piece of ginger- scrubbed but not peeled
1/2 orange -cut in half-scrubbed and seeds removed, unpeeled!!!
4 Tbs. chia seeds
2 cups oat milk- unsweeetened or any nut milk
This is sweet enough for me but you can add honey or stevia if you want more sweetness.
You may need to thin it with water.
This makes about 4 smooothies.
I will try adding cottage cheese after reading today’s post. I enjoyed reading everyone’s recipes!
I would love to have a vitamix blender. Thank you for the opportunity!!
So amazing! Love the roasted strawberries!
My go-to smoothie has spinach, frozen pineapple and mango and coconut water. It’s from the Ninja blender recipe book.
I love that this has fat free milk in it. I always seem to have that in the fridge because I can pick it up from the corner store, but I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to make a smoothie and I don’t have another milk alternative
My favorite is spinach, kiwi, pineapple :frozen riced cauliflower, mixed berries and chia
I love smoothies in the morning. I’ve been using protein powder, greens (such as spinach), frozen fruit and almond milk as my go to. But looking to mix things up. I love skinnytaste.com and I am so grateful for you!!!
Thanks Tammy! 🙂
What’s the benefit of roasting the strawberries?
Roasting the strawberries brings out amazing flavor .
It sounds amazing and I love most of Gina’s recipes Unfortunately in my opinion, this one did not live up. It was fine but not great. It was not a strong strawberry flavor and the cottage cheese taste was more prevalent than I thought it would be.
For ease of use, I’d rather throw some protein powder and fruit straight into the blender.
My favorite smoothie is spinach smoothie….it has a handful of spinach 1cup of almond milk 1/2cup of pineapple 1/2 banana 1 Tb raw honey and a scoop of collagen protein so good☺
Super simple, but so delicious
1 cup frozen fruit (typically blend of strawberries, mango, pineapple)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 teaspoon of chia seeds
Handful of baby spinach
~3/4 scoop vanilla protein powder (love my 7.99 can from TRader Joes — 100 cals, 20 G protein, 2 g sugar per scoop)
I’m excited to try roasting berries for smoothie. Never would have thought of that!
My dairy free smoothie- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 cup cold green tea, 1/2 banana, 3-5 good size frozen strawberries, 1 scoop pea protein powder, 1large kale leaf ( I buy a bunch, wash and freeze in ziplock bag) pea protein makes a thick shake, I’m totally hooked on!
Hi!
Just a question about the "1-1/2 cups fresh strawberries" part: does that mean "one and a half cups", or "one to one-half cup"?!
Thanks!

I love anything I can sneak veggies into so I don't have to eat them 🙂 My daughter and I are loving strawberry/spinach smoothies! @gracieslp@gmail.com
This was so good. I loved how roasting the strawberries made them taste so much more intensely…strawberry-ey! lol I added a frozen banana instead of using ice. My husband and 4 y/o loved it too!
Do you think you could freeze the roasted strawberries in their juice for smoothies etc later? Strawberries are a great price right now but I'm always battling freezer burn when I just pop them in freezer bags. I thought this might help them last longer and then I could do a bunch without having to roast them for every smoothie.
My favorite smoothie is: Almond Milk, Banana, Peanut Butter, ice and spinach.

Does anyone think it's a bad idea to post your email for anyone to see? Seems like this would make a prime opportunity for someone to run a phishing scam by sending emails telling people they've won.
All of your recipes are so brilliant. Your all information is very well founded and presented in such a convincing way. I have found many blogs on this subject, but by far, yours is the best. Regards for sharing.

I actually really like your Avena shake. I only add 1 tbsp of sugar and switch the rest of the sugar for 1-2 tbsp of Hershey's chocolate drink mix. I also add a little vanilla and a little less cinnamon (or sometimes omit it). It's SO good!!

My favorite smoothie recipe is based on one called "Muscle Power" I used to get from a lunch place called "Evergreen Deli" in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. My version is my go-to after a workout, especially one that involves weights!
Unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Two generous tablespoons of PB2 (real peanut butter will work, too, and is richer, but I love PB2)
One banana (frozen is best!)
Honey
I blend it all together with ice and occasionally sprinkle in some chia of flax seeds. The result is insanely delicious and perfect for after a workout!

Lately my favorite smoothie has been frozen strawberries with some milk, OJ concentrate, chia seeds, and spinach, with a drizzle of agave to add some sweetness since the frozen strawberries have been on the sour side. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
I like to stay basic, easy to make while my one year old is having breakfast, but full of nutrients to help me keep up with him! 1/2-3/4 c strawberries, 1/2 c plain yogurt (I don't do refined sugar, but if you do, can sub your favorite flavor!), 2 c spinach, dollop of honey :), 1/2 banana and a handful of ice! If I need more of a boost, I'll throw in some quick cook oats. Contact me at weish005@umn.edu – thank you!!
I don't drink smoothies myself but make one every day for my two year old. I usually include spinach, banana, seasonal fruit (right now we're doing strawberries and grapes), and milk or yogurt.

I don't really have a favorite smoothie recipe. I love the "orange Julius". Does that count? My current blender won't handle much…
My favourite smoothie is a green smoothie with a handful of spinach and kale, some almond or coconut milk and peaches or strawberries (or really any fruit!) so easy and delicious. I use a Magic Bullet which is great but can only do single servings – would LOVE the Vitamix!!
Contact at jennifer.johnson403 [at] gmail [dot] com – thanks 🙂
My favorite smoothie is the Green Goblin
1 medium or large ripe avocado
1 1/2 cup fresh pineapple
1 Tbs honey
1 1/2 cup orange juice
2 tsp lime juice (optional)
1/4 tsp coconut meat or flavor
2 ice cubes–or a handful
And you can also make popsicles out of them too.
Love the idea of cottage cheese for protein. Hate protein powders because they usually have artificial sweeteners in them, and don't like the taste of those.
My favorite recipe is whatever is on hand and quick! I like to add chia and it seems to keep me full longer, frozen banana to make it thick, and whatever frozen fruit I have, some sliced almonds.
Steph at myfrogs@hotmail.com
I love green smoothies! Kale, avocado, green apple w/ almond milk, and sometimes I throw in a few almonds, too.

My favorite smoothie is the combination of kale, baby spinach, cantaloupe, strawberries, 1/2 apple, baby carrots, lowfat yogurt, and a few grapes (PLUS a lttle water or any preferred liquid and a few cubes of ice). The grapes make it sweet to cut the bitter of the kale! It's a lot but I get my veggies and fruits in!
Thank you so much! –LaQuita Cox-King (laquitaking254@gmail.com)
Strawberries, banana, yogurt and honey!
I'm so boring – mixed berries + banana + greek yogurt is my go to smoothie… However, if I won the vitamix, I'd start adding greens as well – which would save me a ton at my local juice bar!

What a great giveaway! My favorite smoothie is storng, cold coffee (sweetened the way you like it), milk, 1/2 c. vanilla greek yogurt, chia (if you soak them in the liquid overnight (the coffee is good for this) they aren't crunchy in the smoothie), and a few handfuls of spinach and ice.

My favorite smoothie recipe is:
1 c. spinach
1 c. unsweetened almond milk
1/4 sliced avocado
1/2 banana (preferably already frozen in the freezer for an hour to make the smoothie extra creamy)
1 tsp. chia seeds for those omega-3s!
It's not over the top sweet, and you can add a dash of stevia or honey into it, but I think it's suuuuuuuuuper creamy and filling. Perfect for a light breakfast or lunch on the go!
My favorite smoothie is pineapple, strawberry and banana. I will have to try your idea of cottage cheese for added protein!

I don't make a lot of smoothies, but I do like to make milkshakes, and then throw in some protein powder so I can pretend that it's at least sort of healthy. I don't usually manage to convince myself of this, but I really love chocolate milkshakes, and at least this way I get some extra protein. 🙂

My favorite smoothie usually involves some variation of kale, a banana, strawberries, chia seeds, and greek yogurt with a tiny bit of honey. But I'm certain I'd make a LOT more smoothies with a Vitamix than my current blender, which is a hand-me-down and appears to be straight out of a 1982 kitchen. Ha.

Hmm… so many recipes, only one vitamix! I love to do frozen 1/2 banana and 1/2 cup strawberries, vanilla almond milk (or milk of your choice), 1 TBSP almond or cashew butter, 1/2 Cup cottage cheese. Blend together, starting with 1/3 cup milk, add more as needed depending on how thin or thick i would like it. If i have spinach or kale, i may throw some in, either way it's great, but i bet it would blend up much better in a vitamix 🙂

My favorite smoothies all have peanut butter in them, I don't really follow a recipe, rather I use whatever fruits & other ingredients I have on hand. I'm a runner, so I ALWAYS have bananas, so I most commonly make banana-based smoothies. The general recipe is somethig like this:
1 banana
some (1/4 cup) peanut butter
yogurt (I prefer vanilla, but will use whatever I have on hand)
1/4 c oatmeal (or other grains, such as flax)
blend these up, then add enough Almond milk to thin it out enough to be drinkable.
Enjoy! 🙂 Candy

Hi!
I don't have a set favorite, so I will share with you my go to recipie.

-8oz of soymilk/almond/milk of your choice
-2cups of Kale, spinach, and chard greens mixed
-1 banana
-1 Apple
-1 handful of blackberries (minus1 for immediate eating)
-2 scoop Protein powder

My favorite smoothie recipe is: mixed berries, bananas, chia seeds, flax seeds, vanilla almond milk (or rice milk), and TwinLab Clean Series Whey/Casein blend Sport Proten Powder in the vanilla flavor (no artificial sweetners +gluten free). The protein powder + vanilla almond + mixed berries make it taste like a milkshake except it's actually good for you!

Love this! I have a magic bullet that I cram ingredients into, unsure of the exact amounts, but I use: spinach, banana, frozen mixed berries, milk & greek yogurt, although this morning I substituted cottage cheese for the yogurt based on your recipe above – tasty! And my kids love it, which is the important thing for me. One of my sneaky ways of getting them to eat spinach!
