Anti-Inflammatory Smoothie With Nuts (Almonds or Walnuts)

Why it works: quick, portable, and easy to make higher-protein (more filling, fewer cravings).

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened milk of choice
  • 1 cup frozen berries or ½ banana + ½ cup berries
  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed or 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp walnuts or 1 tbsp almond butter
  • Protein option choose one:
  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt or
  • 1 scoop protein powder whey or plant-based

Instructions

  • Blend everything until smooth.
  • If it’s too thick, add ¼ cup water or ice.
  • Taste and adjust (cinnamon adds sweetness without sugar).

Notes

Flexible swaps
• Plant-based: use soy yogurt or pea protein
• Lower sugar: skip banana, use more berries + cinnamon
