Sweeteners (optional)

Instructions
- Prepare ingredients: Peel and chop the kiwis, hull the strawberries, and slice the banana to make blending easier.
- Combine in blender: Add the kiwis, strawberries, banana, Greek yogurt, and orange juice to a blender.
- Blend: Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, ensuring all the fruit and yogurt are fully combined.
- Adjust sweetness: Taste the smoothie and add honey or maple syrup if you prefer it sweeter, then blend again briefly.
- Add ice for texture: If you desire a colder and thicker smoothie, add the ice and blend until ice is crushed and mixture is smooth.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute plant-based yogurt or skip yogurt entirely, increasing fruit juice to maintain consistency.
- Transform the smoothie into a bowl by using less liquid and topping with granola, seeds, and fresh fruit for added texture.
