Helpful Tips
For a thicker smoothie, use frozen banana slices instead of fresh ones. If you prefer your smoothie colder, add a few ice cubes before blending.
Substitute silken tofu with Greek-style coconut yogurt for a different texture.
To make it more filling, consider adding a handful of rolled oats.
