ADDING PROTEIN TO FRUIT SMOOTHIES

Fruit smoothies can be a delicious way to get in your daily amounts of fruits and vegetables, but they can leave you feeling hungry again before you know it. Sneak in extra protein into the smoothie by using a high-protein fro-yo or Greek yogurt. It adds a delicious tang and texture to the smoothie, and it will fill you up for longer!

You can watch me make these tasty smoothies in this short video.  I release two new videos on my YouTube channel each week, so hop over and check them all out!

TIPS FOR SUPER DELICIOUS SMOOTHIES

Just a little smoothie-making tip: When your bananas start to get too brown to eat plain, peel them and put them in a freezer bag.  I keep a stash of frozen bananas in my freezer for smoothies or banana bread all the time.

Using frozen berries and bananas will yield a thick, ice cream-like smoothie. If you want to be able to drink the smoothie through a straw, stream in a small amount of milk at a time until you get the consistency you are looking for.
