Ingredients

Smoothie

1 frozen banana (½ cup if pre-diced)* $0.26

Instructions

Gather ingredients. Prepare half a batch of Beth’s Homemade Whipped Cream (using the heavy whipping cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract), and put it in the freezer to chill while you make your smoothie.
Add banana, strawberries, cottage cheese, milk, and vanilla extract to a blender.
Blend until smooth.
Top with homemade whipped cream and crumbled vanilla sandwich cookies.

Notes

*I used 4% fat cottage cheese, but any fat % will do!

**You won't use all the whipped cream to top these smoothies, so I recommend freezing the rest in dollops on parchment to use later…or hey, grab a spoon! I won’t tell! I didn’t cut the recipe in half further because it was too little liquid for the hand mixer to manage turning into whipped cream.
