Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water and remove their stems to ensure a clean, fresh base for the smoothie.

- For an extra boost, add a handful of spinach or a scoop of protein powder.
- This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- Almond milk can be substituted with any other plant-based milk or dairy milk as preferred.
