Improvised Healthy Smoothie

image

So today I decided to create my own smoothie. There are so many options that you can’t go wrong with improvising. Normally I create juices or smoothies with kale, since its loaded with nutrients.  Todays smoothie was a plain strawberry banana with a couple extra ingredients.  Ingredients and nutrition facts are below.  Hopefully you don’t need instructions on the actual process.  If you do,  one word…blender…or…dumb.

16 oz smoothie
5 large strawberries
1 medium banana
1/2 cup low fat plain yogurt
1/4 cup Silk Almond Cocunut blend – unsweetened
1 tsp honey – I used organic
1 tsp flaxseeds
1/4 scoop whey protein (Nitro Tech)
* Next time I will use a full scoop or more of protein. 
1 handful of ice

280 calories
16g protein
49g carbs
*banana has 27 grams of carbs, but 15 of those are from sugars and the rest from dietary fiber (doesn’t get absorbed)

What are your favorite juice/smoothie?
