Serving(s)
Basic Recipe
| 8 oz milk, or mix with kefir or yogurt |
| 1 pear, peeled and cored |
| 1 ripe banana |
| 1 teaspoon poppy seeds |
| 2 scoops/tablespoons collagen or gelatin |
| 1/4 scant cup whey or soy protein, to taste |
| psillium husk, as prescribed (optional) |
| 8 ice cubes |
For Color
| 1/3 oz red/purple cabbage |
Banana Pear Smoothie Directions
- Add milk to the blender first (prevents powders from sticking to the bottom and sides)
- Add all ingredients to blender and blend thoroughly.
- If you want to add the color, add a small amount of red/purple cabbage. Cabbage functions as a natural litmus test, so the color will vary depending on the acidity of your fruit and beverage.
- Split into two glasses and serve.
Recipe notes
This would be easy to switch out the milk and whey protein with a soy, oatmeal, or rice milk and similar protein powders for a dairy free version. Making it dairy free and leaving out the gelatin would make it vegan.
