    Jump to Recipe

    If you want to enjoy a tasty smoothie without yogurt, these dairy-free recipes are for you. There are over a dozen easy ideas for making a homemade smoothie at home in just minutes. If you want something with fruit, vegetables, chocolate, or even peanut butter, this list is the best lactose-free smoothies. Just don't drink some of these cold smoothies too fast - ouch, brain freeze!

    Many are packed with healthy ingredients that are good for you. Kids and adults will enjoy these non-dairy blended drinks. The key to a great smoothie is a blend of fruits & vegetables, along with a liquid, and add-ins like protein powders and healthy fats. So grab your mixer and a few ingredients to blend up a new favorite concoction.

    What I love about all these recipe ideas is that they are fantastic any time of day. Smoothies are not just good for breakfast. Blend up a smoothie without yogurt or any dairy for lunch, snacks, dinner, dessert, or whenever you have a craving. If you use plant-based yogurt, I recommend using some to substitute for the greek yogurt in my delicious 4-ingredient Mango Pineapple Smoothie.
