# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like a milkshake but keeps you full for hours thanks to the protein from Greek yogurt.
  • You can customize the toppings endlessly, so it never gets boring even if you make it three times a week.
02 -
  • If your blender struggles with frozen fruit, let the banana sit out for five minutes or use a high-speed blender to avoid a chunky mess.
  • The consistency should be thick enough that a spoon stands upright in the bowl, if it's runny, you've added too much liquid or not enough frozen banana.
03 -
  • Add a tiny pinch of sea salt to the blender, it intensifies the chocolate and peanut butter flavors in a way that feels almost magical.
  • If you want it even thicker, use frozen Greek yogurt instead of fresh, it turns the whole thing into something closer to froyo.
