    My go to morning smoothie is as follows:

    All Whites - 100% Liquid Egg Whites, 2/3 cup
    Spinach - Raw, 1 cup
    Generic - Freshly Frozen Whole Unsweetened Berry Medley, 2/3 cup
    Arizona - Diet Green Tea, 2/3 cup
    Lemon Juice, 1 tbsp

    185 Calories
    20g Protein
    12g Sugar
    24g Carbs

    It is sooo good! Sometimes I add a dab of sugar free whipped cream on top. I would go with sweet spinach over the strong variants. My smoothie used to only have 1/3 cup liquid egg whites so you may want to start there and see how it tastes for you. :)

    I use the smoothie to get my protein and a dose of greens and mushrooms.

    1/4 cup ice
    1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
    1/4 cup mushroom juice (from steeping freeze dried shrooms)
    1/4 cup mushrooms
    2 cups (mixed greens - Kale, Bok Choy, Collards, Watercress, Mustard Greens)
    1/2 cup beans (switch it up - depends on what beans I get from Whole Foods)
    2 scoops GNC Mega Man Supplemental Powder (flavored)

    I'm also looking for more ways to add protein to smoothies, but I'm looking for recipes with no protein powder, just food.
