What You’ll Need To Make

Key Ingredients in Your Blueberry Cheesecake Protein Smoothie

→ Frozen Blueberries 🫐 : Blueberries aren’t just delicious; they’re packed with antioxidants and vitamins! Using frozen blueberries in this smoothie gives it that perfect creamy texture, plus they add a natural sweetness without all the extra sugar. Bonus: they help keep your smoothie nice and cold!

→ Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk 🥛 : Almond milk is a great dairy-free base that adds a smooth, creamy feel without overpowering the flavor. The unsweetened version keeps the smoothie light, so the other ingredients really shine. Plus, it’s low in calories—win-win!

→ Greek Yogurt 🍶 : Greek yogurt brings all the protein to the party! It makes your smoothie thick and creamy while giving it a slight tang, which balances out the sweetness of the fruit. It’s also a great source of probiotics, which are awesome for gut health!

→ Vanilla Protein Powder 💪 : This is the secret ingredient that packs a protein punch and keeps you full longer. It also adds a smooth texture and a yummy vanilla flavor that pairs perfectly with the blueberries and cream cheese. Choose your favorite protein powder for a boost of energy!

→ Cream Cheese 🧀 : For that cheesecake-like vibe, cream cheese is a must! It adds richness and creaminess that makes this smoothie feel indulgent. Don’t worry, it’s just a small amount, so it won’t overpower the smoothie, but it gives it that deliciously creamy texture you’re craving.

These simple yet powerful ingredients come together to create a smoothie that’s as nutritious as it is tasty!

Useful Tips for Success

1| Frozen fruit for extra creaminess: Using frozen blueberries will make your smoothie thicker and creamier. You can also freeze your almond milk for an even smoother texture!

2| Adjust sweetness to taste: If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or a couple of dates.

3| Customize protein powder: Not all protein powders are created equal, so feel free to experiment with flavors (like vanilla or chocolate) to match your taste.

4| Perfect blend: If your smoothie is too thick, just add a splash more almond milk until you reach your preferred consistency.

5| Make it ahead: Prep the ingredients in a ziplock bag and freeze them. Just toss the bag’s contents into the blender in the morning for an even quicker smoothie.

6| Go light on the cream cheese: You don’t need much cream cheese to get that rich, cheesecake flavor—use just a little for the perfect balance!

7| Add extras: For an extra protein boost, throw in some hemp seeds, flaxseeds, or a handful of spinach—you won’t even taste it!

8| Serving suggestion: Garnish with fresh blueberries or a crumble of your favorite cookies for that extra “wow” factor.

Serving Suggestions

1| Smoothie Bowl: Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top with granola, fresh blueberries, chia seeds, and a drizzle of honey for added texture and sweetness.

2| Glass Rimmed with Crumbled Biscuits: For a fun touch, crush some Lotus biscuits and rim the glass before pouring in the smoothie. It adds crunch and a bit of extra flavor!

3| Topped with Whipped Cream: For an indulgent treat, top your smoothie with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with a few extra blueberries.

4| Layered Dessert Style: Layer the smoothie in a glass with some extra Greek yogurt and crushed cookies for a “cheesecake parfait” vibe.

5| Serve with a Side of Biscotti: Pair your smoothie with a couple of crispy Lotus biscuits or any cookie of choice for that perfect balance of creamy and crunchy.

6| In a Mason Jar: For a cute and on-the-go presentation, serve your smoothie in a mason jar with a straw—perfect for sipping and snapping a pic!

7| Garnish with Mint: Add a sprig of fresh mint on top to give it a refreshing pop of color and an extra layer of flavor.

8| Frozen Pop Version: Freeze the smoothie mixture in popsicle molds and enjoy a refreshing, creamy treat on a hot day!

Storage Suggestions

1| In the Fridge (for up to 24 hours): If you’ve made extra or want to prep it ahead, store the smoothie in an airtight container or mason jar in the fridge. Just give it a quick stir or shake before serving, as it may separate a bit.

2| Freezing Individual Servings: Pour your smoothie into ice cube trays or silicone molds for individual servings. When you’re ready to drink, blend the frozen cubes with a splash of almond milk to bring it back to life!

3| Smoothie Packs: Prep the dry ingredients (protein powder, cream cheese, etc.) in ziplock bags or containers, and store them in the freezer. In the morning, just add almond milk and frozen berries, and you’ll have a quick smoothie ready to blend!

4| Mason Jars for Grab-and-Go: If you prefer making your smoothie the night before, store it in a mason jar with a tight lid. It’s perfect for a grab-and-go breakfast or snack the next day.

5| Storing Leftovers (in Freezer): If you have leftover smoothie, pour it into an airtight container or popsicle molds, and freeze for later enjoyment. It’s great as a frozen snack or treat. Just let it thaw slightly before drinking if you prefer it not to be too icy!

For the best texture and flavor, I recommend consuming the smoothie within 24 hours, especially if you’re keeping it in the fridge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen?

Yes, you can! However, using frozen blueberries will give the smoothie a thicker, creamier texture. If you're using fresh blueberries, you might want to add a few ice cubes to chill it and give it that creamy consistency.

Can I make this smoothie vegan?

Absolutely! Simply swap the Greek yogurt with a dairy-free yogurt (like coconut or almond yogurt) and use a plant-based protein powder. Also, make sure your cream cheese is dairy-free.

How can I make this smoothie sweeter?

If you like your smoothie on the sweeter side, you can add a little honey, maple syrup, or stevia to taste. A couple of dates also work great!

Can I use a different type of protein powder?

Yes, feel free to swap the vanilla protein powder with chocolate, berry, or any flavor you prefer. Just keep in mind that the flavor will change depending on what you use.

Can I prep this smoothie ahead of time?

For sure! You can prepare the ingredients in advance and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours. If you're looking to prep for a few days, freeze the ingredients in a ziplock bag for an easy grab-and-blend option.

How can I thicken my smoothie?

If you want a thicker smoothie, you can add more Greek yogurt or a spoonful of nut butter. A frozen banana or more frozen fruit will also do the trick!

Can I add other fruits to this smoothie?
