# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in literally five minutes, making it the absolute lifesaver when you're running late but still want something substantial
  • The Greek yogurt makes it ridiculously creamy without needing any fancy ingredients or frozen yogurt bases
02 -
  • If your blender struggles with frozen banana chunks, let them thaw for 5 minutes or break them into smaller pieces first
  • The smoothie will thicken up if you let it sit, so if you're meal prepping, add extra milk before storing
03 -
  • If your bananas aren't spotted enough, the smoothie might taste bland so don't be shy with the honey
  • A frozen banana eliminates the need for ice cubes, which means no watered-down flavor
