Category: Appetizers & Drinks   Author: Cami   Date: 5/9/2008

Ingredients

1/2 cup nonfat milk 1/2 cup fat-free plain yogurt 1/2 frozen banana, peeled and chopped 2 Tbl. powdered protein supplement 1 1/2 Tbl. flax seed 1 tsp. Honey 1/2 cup Frozen strawberries

Instructions

In a blender, blend all ingredients until smooth. I use tofu instead of the protein supplement because it adds a lot of calories and you still get the protein. The nutrition information for this recipe includes the protein powder. Add about 65 calories for .25 of a block of tofu and 6.5 grams of protein. I add less than .25 of a block. Feel free to play around with the fruit and the yogurt too. Nutrition information with protein powder: Calories: 348 Cholesterol: 5 mg. Sodium: 283 mg. Carbohydrates: 56.1 g. Dietary Fiber: 10.1 g.
