Smoothie King Slim-N-Trim Vanilla

“A creamy, delicious smoothie that’s both satisfying and light.”
🙂 Trish P.

Slim-N-Trim Vanilla, a copycat Manage Weight Blend Smoothie King recipe, is a simple and satisfying blend designed to help you stay on track with your health goals without sacrificing flavor. The creamy sweetness of bananas pairs perfectly with the rich vanilla notes from the whey protein, creating a refreshing and nutritious treat that’s ideal for any time of day. With just a few ingredients, this smoothie is a quick and easy way to fuel your body.

Bananas are a great source of potassium, which is essential for maintaining healthy blood pressure levels and supporting heart health. They also provide natural energy and aid in digestion thanks to their fiber content. Whey protein is a high-quality protein that helps with muscle repair and growth, making this smoothie an excellent choice for post-workout recovery or as a meal replacement for those looking to slim down while staying full and satisfied.

Everything You Need

Key Ingredients

The Smoothie King Slim-N-Trim Vanilla ingredients are:

bananas
whey protein powder
Collagen Boost, optional

Health Benefits

Bananas – Bananas are very healthy, readily available, and one of the least expensive fruits you can buy. They have relatively few calories, are rich in nutrients such as vitamin C and potassium, are full of potent antioxidants including flavonoids and animes, and are high in dietary fiber. Studies have shown that bananas can improve insulin sensitivity and may improve kidney health.

Whey Protein Powder – Whey protein powder is the most highly studied nutritional supplement readily available, providing great nutritional value and numerous health benefits. In addition to high quality protein, it also contains bioactive peptides called lactokinins. Whey protein powder promotes muscle growth and maintenance, helps lower blood pressure, can lessen the effects of Type 2 diabetes, and reduces inflammation.

Equipment Needed

A standard blender is all that is required to make these delicious smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.

If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend a higher-end Vitamix blender that can process larger loads more efficiently.

For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.

How To Make The Smoothie King Slim-N-Trim Vanilla

The Smoothie King Slim-N-Trim Vanilla is very easy to make:

Step 1: Place bananas, whey protein powder, water, and ice into a blender and secure the lid.
Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.

Recipe Tips And Substitutions

For ease of use, we recommend peeling and slicing a number of bananas, putting them in a freezer bag, and storing them in your freezer for quick access.

If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.

To make this smoothie vegan, you can substitute the whey protein with a plant-based protein powder, such as pea or soy protein.

For a creamier texture, consider adding a splash of almond or oat milk.

If you prefer a sweeter taste, add a few dates or a drizzle of honey.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions

What type of protein powder can I use if I want a dairy-free option?

For a dairy-free alternative, you can use plant-based protein powders like pea, hemp, or soy protein. These options still provide a substantial protein boost and cater to vegan or lactose-intolerant diets.

How can I add more nutrients to this smoothie?

You can boost the nutritional content by adding a handful of spinach or kale for extra vitamins and minerals. Chia seeds or flaxseeds are also great additions for added fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
