Life can get hectic, right? Between work, family, and trying to squeeze in some 'me' time, it's easy to let healthy habits slip. I've been there – grabbing a sugary coffee and a pastry on the way to work because I was too tired to prep anything. But I always felt sluggish and guilty afterwards. Then, one of my coworkers mentioned they have a quick smoothie in the morning and they felt amazing. Thus started my smoothie journey!
This Rice Syrup Solids Almond Power Smoothie is not just a drink; it's a quick, delicious way to pack a ton of nutrients into your morning. It's creamy, subtly sweet, and keeps me feeling full and energized for hours. What does this mean for you? No more mid-morning energy crashes or reaching for unhealthy snacks! I hope this becomes a staple in your morning routine like it has for mine. There are so many things that affect one's health, but this one is delicious.

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients: 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 frozen banana (this is key for that creamy texture!), 2 tablespoons of almond butter (the smoother, the better in my opinion), 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (I use whey, but plant-based works too!), 1 tablespoon of rice syrup solids, and a handful of ice cubes (if you're not using a frozen banana).
- Combine all the ingredients into a high-speed blender. Make sure the lid is on tight – trust me on this one.
- Blend on high speed for about 30-60 seconds, or until the smoothie is smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, add a splash more almond milk. If it's too thin, toss in a few more ice cubes or a small piece of frozen banana.
- Give it a taste! Adjust the sweetness by adding a bit more rice syrup solids, or adjust the thickness with more liquid or ice.
- Pour your Rice Syrup Solids Almond Power Smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately! I sometimes like to garnish mine with a sprinkle of sliced almonds or a drizzle of almond butter – because why not?
- If you are not planning to dring the smoothie right away, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but be aware that the texture might change. Give it a good shake before drinking!
📝 Notes
- For a thicker smoothie, use more frozen banana or ice.
- Adjust the amount of rice syrup solids to your liking.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor.
- Consider adding some greens like spinach for additional nutrients.
