I’m a huge smoothie junkie and probably have them about 3-4 mornings a week. I would eat them all the time if I could and especially in a bowl. I find they last a lot longer that way than if I’m slurping them up from a cup.
This is my favourite basic smoothie bowl recipe and I use it all the time, subbing in whatever fruit that I have on hand.
What you’ll need:
1 cup Frozen Fruit (I like any combination of bananas, strawberries, blueberries, pineapple)
1/2 cup Low Fat Milk
1 scoop Protein Powder
I usually grab a big bunch of bananas from the store, let them ripen, then chop them up into pieces. I’ll toss them into a large freezer bag and keep them in the freezer for when I need them. They make the smoothies extra creamy when you add them in frozen. I stock up on frozen strawberries (or other fruit) when they’re on sale and keep them in the freezer as well.
When you’re ready to go, toss in about 1/2 cup of frozen strawberries and 1/2 cup frozen banana slices into the food processor.
Pour in the milk and then place the lid back on top. Give the whole thing a whirl until the frozen fruit starts to get smooth and creamy.
Toss in the scoop of protein powder and give it another whirl until everything is combined and smooth. If it looks too thick, give it another splash of milk.

What protein powder do you use?
I have smoothies around 3 times a week (wish I could make myself take it daily!) I usually add in some frozen berries (Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry and Blackberry), a teaspoon of yoghurt, a cup of apple juice and a scoop of protein powder.
They are very filling!
