310 Organic Unflavored
If you’re familiar with my recipes, you know I love adding meal replacement shakes into my smoothies to help add thickness and extra nutrition! I’ll often add a flavored shake as a way to enhance the taste, but in this case, I want the strawberries and banana to be the star flavors in this smoothie.
310 Organic Unflavored is the perfect option to use in these instances and it’s also packed with protein and fiber to help keep you satiated. Below are some other reasons why I’m such a big fan of 310 Organic Unflavored!

Ways to “Shake Up” This Smoothie
Although this Strawberry Banana Smoothie is a classic, there are still some ways you can tweak the recipe while maintaining the fruity flavors that you know and love! These alternative ingredients are a great way to add a little bit of variety when you’re in the mood to change it up.
- Almond or coconut milk instead of coconut water: For a creamier taste
- Flax seeds or hemp seeds instead of chia seeds: Adds more texture and mouthfeel
- Avocado instead of chia seeds: For a completely smooth and silky consistency
How to Make this Classic Smoothie
This smoothie is so easy to make and takes almost no time at all! Cut the green tops off your strawberries and slice in half. Once you have your strawberries prepped, add the rest of your ingredients into the blender and blend until everything is completely smooth and thoroughly combined. All that’s left is to pour your finished smoothie into a glass and enjoy!
