This peach banana cottage cheese smoothie is a perfect snack or breakfast for kids and adults. Cottage cheese gives an extra boost of protein!
My kids devour these smoothies and don’t have any idea that they contain cottage cheese. They’re enamored by a couple of their favorite fruits paired with sweet, sweet honey. Who wouldn’t love that?
Yogurt is great in smoothies, but don’t you think it’s time you try something new?
Be sure to use frozen bananas for an extra thick smoothie! If you don’t know how, learn the best way to freeze bananas.
Make This Smoothie Recipe Your Own
Smoothies are easy to change and adapt to your preferences. Here are some ideas:
- Use different types of fruit. As long as you keep the ratios roughtly the same, you’ll be good! Try classic strawberry and banana or put a tropical spin on things with mango and pineapple.
- Powerhouse add-ins. We keep this smoothie relatively basic, but you can amp things up by adding any number of things. Consider flax, hemp, or chia seeds. Increase the protein with a scoop of your favorite protein powder. Add bee pollen. The options are endless!
- Add vegetables. Smoothies are a great place to sneak in some vegetables. Try a handful of spinach or a frozen cauliflower.

HMMM banana and honey is really amazing combination .
Its really amazing .
So glad you enjoyed!
Can you freeze? My Mom is on a pureed diet and I am trying to find things I can make ahead for her caregivers to give her during the day. TY
That should work! It might need a quick blend again when it’s thawed to re-combine everything, but I think it will be fine.
I just made this smoothie and it was delicious omg it was so creamy and yummy I will definitely be making it again
I’m so glad to hear you liked this recipe! Thank you for taking the time to come back and leave a comment!
Ok. Where do I get those cute glasses with the straws?
I think I got those from Zulily, but I found some similar ones on Amazon (affiliate links, no extra cost to you!): These look nearly identical, these come with a super cute carrier, these are also very similar, and these have fun colorful straws but the lids don’t have holes. Hope that helps!
Please link where you bought glass bottles
I think those were a lucky Target dollar spot find! These are very similar, though.
