Short workout and no time to eat…Have a smoothie! *Smoothies are also great after late evening workouts
On the go vanilla smoothie: 1 scoop flavored 90-110 calorie protein powder 3-4 ice cubes (or ½ cup crushed ice) ½ cup skim/soy milk ¼ cup water 4 ounces low-sugar vanilla yogurt (40-60 calories per serving) Dash of cinnamon Optional – 1 spoonful ice cream (less than 110 calories per serving)
Combine ice cubes, milk, water, yogurt and cinnamon in a blender. *If you’ve been good with your training…add ice cream
Add protein powder to blender.
Blend mixture for 10-15 seconds until smooth.
You may need to add more water for your consistency needs.
Poor smoothie into glass and enjoy!
