Ingredients and Substitutions

Let’s see what you need to make this chocolate strawberry banana smoothie without yogurt or milk, because yes, it is a vegan smoothie!

Frozen Strawberries – Frozen fruits make smoothies creamier, and strawberry marries very well with chocolate. Ripe Banana – For natural sweetness and extra creamy texture. The ripest the fruit, the sweeter the smoothie will be. Unsweetened Cocoa Powder – You can use sweetened cocoa powder, but you’d have to reduce the quantity of dates to balance the sweetness. Unsweetened coconut milk or almond milk, or any plant-based milk you love. Ripe Avocado – It adds healthy fat and gives the most creamy, thick texture to the smoothie! Dates – For an extra boost of sweetness while adding magnesium, potassium, iron (find other vegan iron source), and vitamin B6. I used small Deglet Noor dates. Medjool dates are larger! Chia Seeds – For extra protein and fiber.

Smoothie Add-Ons

The good thing with smoothies is that you can play with their ingredients. For example, you can add greens like spinach or kale to this recipe to sneak some extra veggies into your day. But in general, I recommend keeping the same ratio of frozen ingredients to liquid to get a perfect consistency.

Vegetables  – add kale, spinach, or cucumber. Seeds – add 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, flax seeds, and hemp seeds. Nut or seed butter – add 1 tablespoon of almond butter, peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter.
