This lactose-free smoothie recipe makes the perfect purple pick-me-up. The banana adds a creamy texture and a subtle sweetness that pairs beautifully with a berry boost. You’ll even get extra protein from our delicious LACTAID® Lactose-Free Protein Milk and a serving of greens from a handful of baby spinach.
½ cup blackberries, frozen
½ cup raspberries, frozen
1 very ripe banana, frozen
Prepare Frozen Berries:
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set Aside.
Place blackberries and raspberries in a colander and dip them in a bowl of cold water.
Gently swish the colander in the water, then allow the berries to drain.
Spread the berries in a single layer on paper towels. Gently pat the berries dry with another paper towel.
Arrange the berries on the baking sheet and freeze until solid.
Prepare Frozen Banana:
Peel the banana and slice into rounds.
Arrange the banana rounds on the baking sheet and freeze until solid or up to a couple of days.
Smoothie Packs:
Transfer the frozen berries, banana and baby spinach to freezer bags and store flat in the freezer until ready to use.
