    I got this bag of frozen fruit with some smoothie mix in it but for the life of me I can't remember the brand name. It wasn't bad and it was easy but now you got me looking up smoothie machines and recipe books.... good ol Amazon.

    Tell me this thing isn't cool:

    My favorite is the chocolate banana PB protein smoothie:

    1/2 cup skim milk or soy milk
    1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I use GNC Amp Wheybolic 60 Chocolate)
    1/2 banana
    1 tsp natural peanut butter
    couple of ice cubes

    The whole thing is around 170 cals when put into mfp food diary

    I make this one for breakfast sometimes before work.

    1 cup plain vanilla lowfat yogurt.
    1 cup 1% milk
    1/2 cup frozen wild blueberries
    1/3 cup rolled oats
    1 scoop of protein powder (26 grams)
    a dash of cinnamon

    Blend well to chop up the oats good. Tastes great and is a complete meal.

    612 calories
    85 grams of healthy carbs
    8 grams of fat
    50 grams of protein

    You can reduce the calories by omitting the protein powder if you want something lighter.
