Summer Smoothies

With just a few weeks left in my contest prep ….I will start to roll out some of my favorite recipes….Of course I will start with the things I have missed the most in my meal plan as I prep for my show. In this first roll out are my smoothies which I absolutely love!!!! I still have protein shakes however they are modified to my current micronutrient specifications and needs. In a few weeks I will enjoy this collection of smoothies on a regular basis either on the Go, Pre or Post-workout. Hope you try and enjoy them as much as I have! I sure miss them!!!! You can find all my reciepes on FACEBOOK under MY NOTES or on this blog page under MY PAGES- All About Food 

ENJOY and if you have any requests I would be happy to customize a smoothie for you!

Blueberry Sunshine:

•1 scoop Chocolate Protein (you can substitute pasteurized egg whites and add 1 tsp. unsweetened coco)

•1/2 cup blueberries

•1/2 banana

•1 cup low sugar/low calorie rice milk or almond or coconut milk (I freeze a tray so the smoothies are thicker)

•2 tbs. of black chia seeds (once blended if you let it sit in the fridge it will thicken to a pudding type mix) don’t use iced milk if you want a pudding type treat otherwise if you drink right away its not too thick)

•1 scoop Vanilla protein (you can substitute pasteurized egg whites and add vanilla)

•1 cup low carb low calorie rice milk or almond or coconut milk (I freeze a tray so the smoothies are thicker)
