I'm in love with protein smoothies. They are smooth, frothy, delicious and packed full of good stuff!! I've been experimenting more and more with flavors and recipes and tonight... well, tonight I made a new one and it's pretty good! (Warning... it's super sweet, so if you don't like it that sweet... I'd omit the Crystal Light packet!)
Betsy's Peach-Berry Protein Smoothie
In your blender... mix on high for 2 minutes (yes, 2 minutes! you want a frothy smoothie, don't ya?):
1 cup of enriched low-fat milk*
1 cup of cold water
1 1/2 scoops vanilla protein powder**
1 packet of Crystal Light On the Go ENERGY Wild Strawberry
Add 10 ice cubes and blend for another 30 seconds.
Add to the mixture and blend for 30 seconds:
1/2 a peach, cubed
1/3 cup fresh raspberries
*Enriched milk has added protein to it. To make enriched milk, add 1/4 non-fat milk powder (I use Saco Mix 'n Drink) to every 1 cup of non-fat milk. Use enriched milk instead of regular milk in all your smoothies/shakes and cooking for added protein!
**I use Max Protein powder by SEI. So far, the vanilla has worked out great for me! You can find it online here.
