I have never made a real smoothie, and I have always been discouraged to make them because of so many types, and what i think I will like and not like or what sounds boring or something, but I made this today after the 30 day shred because for once I had all the ingredients. I bought a 125g packet of blueberries on sale in the market because 1 or 2 of them were going bad, so I threw them in the freezer but had no clue when i was going to use them.

Blueberry and Banana High Protein Smoothie

125g Frozen Blueberries (gueesing 1 cup)

1 ripe frozen banana( peeled and sliced into 2 cm slices, frozen on a plate, makes the smoothie great! i just threw them in the freezer 30 minutes ago, so it was semi frozen)

250ml Semi skim Milk (or milk of your choice)

2 tbsp of Condensed carnation milk (makes it taste Very delicious)

3 spoons of soy protein powder

Put all in a blender and whiz for 30 seconds.

Its just a cheap blender, and cheep ingredients. I couldnt beleieve how suprised I was when I tasted it, It makes to servings, gave one to my husband and he said, yes, this is delicious! tomorrow we will swap the frozen blueberry's for frozen strawberries.

    Sounds really good. Looks like it would make a good after workout snack.

    Sounds similar to a smoothie I do. I use 1 cup frozen blueberries, 1 banana, 1 cup fat free plain yogurt, 1/2 cup orange juice and blend. It's really yummy!!
