How to Make Blueberry Banana Smoothie (Overview)
This smoothie is as easy as it gets! Just toss your ingredients into the blender, hit that button, and you’re done.

How to Serve Blueberry Banana Smoothie
Serve it up in a cute glass and maybe top it with a few extra blueberries for that Instagram-worthy snap. Besides being a gorgeous deep purple, this smoothie pairs well with a crunchy granola topping or a handful of nuts for some texture.

How to Store Blueberry Banana Smoothie
If you somehow have leftovers (we know, right?), you can pop the smoothie in the fridge and enjoy it for up to 24 hours. Just give it a quick stir before drinking.

Tips to Make Blueberry Banana Smoothie
- Use frozen blueberries instead of fresh for a colder, thicker texture without adding ice.
- If bananas start to brown, throw them in the freezer for later use—you won’t even notice the difference!
- Want an extra protein boost? Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
