Rich in that fan favorite peanut buttery flavor, this California Prune Smoothie with a PBJ Twist is soon to be your favorite on rotation this year! Filled with good-for-you foods, like California Prunes, this drinkable delight not only promotes bone and gut health, but also is a win-win that the entire family will love!
To a blender, add milk, riced cauliflower, and California Prunes. Process on high speed for 30 seconds to 1 minute (or until uniformly combined.)
Toss in the frozen banana slices, strawberries, peanut butter, and honey (if using.) Process on high speed until smoothie is uniformly combined.
Pour into a glass (or glasses) and serve immediately. If desired, top with granola.
Notes
This smoothie is easily customizable to work with your own dietary needs! Keep these tips in mind to modify based on what you have on hand/prefer.
Milk: To make this vegan, I like using an unsweetened almond or oat for the creamy consistency. You can also use soy or cow’s milk for more protein. If you prefer a thinner consistency, increase milk volume to 1 ½ cups.
Cauliflower: Frozen riced cauliflower is a great way to sneak in some veggies early in the day. If you don’t have riced, you can freeze a fresh floret and shave it with a knife to create your own “riced” version before tossing in the blender. Feel free to increase this to ⅓ cup as well if you, like me, can’t taste it!
Strawberries: Swap in your preferred berry or cherry of choice! Just make sure it’s frozen to help with the cold, creamy consistency.
Honey: This smoothie is naturally free of added sugars, but if you’re adjusting to the smoothie taste with various fruits and veggies, adding a teaspoon or two of honey, maple or date syrup is totally fine too!
