INGREDIENTS

3/4 cup(s) milk, fat-free, (may substitute soy or almond milk)
1 1/2 cup(s) fruit, of your choice, fresh or frozen
1 scoop(s) protein powder, whey, (may substitute pea, rice, or other protein powder)*
ice cubes, 3-5

PREPARATION

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and frothy.

In the winter months, fresh fruit options may be limited, so take advantage of affordable, frozen fruit — it’s perfect for smoothies. Some of my favorite fruit combos include: banana and mango, strawberry and peach, and triple berry (raspberry, blackberry, blueberry).

*Note: For celiac disease, check the protein powder label to ensure it’s gluten-free.
