This Berry Banana Smoothie will get you moving in no time!
So, we’re making our final push to get this house completely undecorated. Of course I keep finding artificial snow and silver sparkles under the rugs, behind the furniture, in the corners and on the banister but I just keep telling myself, I’m closer to being finished than not, so I can do it!
And this fruity, bold and refreshing Berry Banana Smoothie made with Chobani Greek yogurt is definitely nudging me faster toward the finish line. Along with the Bee Gees and Earth, Wind & Fire.
I decided that not only would I clean and organize but I’d nourish myself and get my heart rate up all at the same time. Talk about multi-tasking!
The job I had to do warranted loud music with a little bit of dancing and a frosty drink. And this frosty drink needed to hit the spot as well as guarantee a much needed healthy reward.
Enter Chobani Greek yogurt, blackberries, raspberries, banana, raw honey, chia seeds, Acai juice and ice.
Not only did my beverage provide me the boost I needed to shake down every last sparkle, it was nutritious, loaded with calcium, vitamins, fiber and anti-oxidants, plus it was rich in flavor and 100% guilt-free. Oh yeah.
So you can imagine my thrill when contacted by Chobani and offered the opportunity to participate in their #MadeWithChobani project. Their goal was for me to develop a healthy recipe using their yogurt, and how timely their request was!! Little did they know I’d be needing what they were offering!
So, if you have cleaning to do, or dancing to do, or just want a yummy smoothie…this is for you!
Buon Appetito!

This smoothie looks so good Annie! Love the color 🙂 Pinned.
Thanks, Manali! So refreshing… 🙂
OMGosh, how did you know that smoothies are one of my very favorite things ever? My absolute favorite breakfast treat of all time. Even if I had a 1,000 smoothie recipes, I’d welcome one more – just like this one! We didn’t decorate for Christmas this year, but I remember finding tidbits of Christmas months afterwards, so I feel your pain!
I knew it, Kristi! Thank you for welcoming this one!! And as much as I’ve been cleaning – there’s no doubt I’ll find more on the 4th of July! Happy weekend, my dear!
Oooh, it’s horrible taking down all the decorations, isn’t it? So much less fun than putting them up!
You definitely needed a sunny kind of power snack like this to remind you that summer’s on its way. Love how versatile Greek yoghurt is!
It is so terrible. It takes way too long…I needed my disco and my sunny power snack – yes!! 🙂
Yum! I love smoothies as post-workout energy refillers and this looks great 🙂

The color is so great for this time of year – we all need a little brightness! I envy your motivation to clean and organize – I’m still working my way out of holiday mode 🙂
I hung in there as long as I could until I could hang no longer! hahah! It’s so funny how a dressed up house goes from perfect-looking to cluttered-looking with a minor shift in the calendar…Thanks, April! 🙂
This may be the perfect smoothie! YUM!
Thanks, Amanda! 🙂
Love the bright colour of that smoothie Annie! It must be smoothie season or something – that’s what I posted today too – but mine’s all boring and green! 🙂 Next time I have blackberries I will be trying this combo, we make a lot of smoothies here! Looks delicious!

That looks so so delicious, I could do with that for my breakfast every day. I make something along those lines but haven’t tried it with chia or acai….. interesting!

I had a feeling that my choice for music might resonate with you!! So happy you like the smoothie! Rock on, sister-friend! 🙂
My family hasn’t quite hit the January healthy train yet, so this sounds perfect right about now. And love that you worked with Chobani! I’m in the process of making a recipe for them too. Don’t know if I can quite compete!!
I hear you…with all the toast and chips I’ve been eating, it was time! I can’t wait to see what you come up with! It will be perfect, I’m sure! Thanks, Sarah! 🙂
Greek yogurt, berries, chia seeds, and raw honey are some of my favorite ingredients to cook with these days. This looks like the perfect dish to add into my breakfast rotation. I’m still working on getting my house back to “normal” – you’ve motivated me 🙂
Yes! Just crank that disco and have a smoothie…it’ll be done in no time! 🙂
This smoothie looks fantastic, Annie! I’m all about the berries and banana. And I always add Greek yogurt to mine, too…gives it such a kick! I could definitely go for a glass of this for breakfast!
