Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups frozen dark sweet cherries pitted
- 1.5 cups frozen peach slices unsweetened
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt for creaminess and protein
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup for vegan option

Notes
Storage: Best enjoyed immediately. If saving for later, store in an airtight jar in the freezer for up to 24 hours and thaw for 15 minutes before shaking. Make-ahead: Prep 'smoothie packs' by placing the fruit and flaxseeds in a freezer bag; just add liquids and blend when ready. Substitution: Use coconut milk for a tropical twist or add a scoop of vanilla protein powder for a post-workout meal.
