Yummy Smoothie

My hubby bought me a smoothie maker for Christmas and I just made delicious smoothie. I used milk, a scoop of vanilla Unjury and a banana. It's not very sweet but you can add Splenda for sweetness if you want. But it is good. Tina

Hey Tina....thanks for the idea....I had my appt today with the nutrionist and she kept telling me about putting the PROTEIN IN!!! And she said ask around for recipes....I'll be trying that one!!!

Your welcome, I will be trying lots more and will let ya know how they turn out.

Tina that sounds good I have a smoothie maker too so how much milk do you put in it? I was thinking of doing one with milk, plain low fat yourgt and fruit along with my protien. I am tring to increase my protien intake. what all are you eating now and what are you eating to get in the protien you get in? Take care, Chrissy

It has a line on the side that says liquids I did it half of that then ice. Eating wise I still drink three protein shakes a day, but I also eat the Michaelina's lean gourmet meals they have good protein any where from 15 grams to 20 grams. Or a hamburger patty, chicken breast, tuna, any fish. I pretty much eat whatever I want I just make sure I have my shakes. I also have some Nectar that I drink at least once a day and it has 23 grams of protein. Oh and for snacks I buy the Kraft 2% cheese sticks. I get them at Wal-mart the are individually wrapped. But they are not hanging with the bag cheese and stuff they are farther down buy the cottage cheese and stuff. They are 1oz a piece and have seven grams of protein. I always find little things like that to eat that has a reasonable amount of protein in it.

Tina, that is what i thought. I eat the lean Michaelina's too. I take them to work for lunch. I have the chesse sticks too. but I only drink 1-2 shakes a day I guess I need to do 2-3 to see what that does. I eat what ever I want now too. I stay away form breads, and pasta most of the time.I think pretien first too when I make my food choices. I will have to look for little things too. take care, Chrissy

I don't do breads either except for my piece of toast in the morning. Bread tends to get stuck and that hurts so I just gave it up. Tina
