Smoothie number 1 is a rousing success!

Not detox-locked, because it's a recipe, kinda, and who doesn't love a good recipe?

I goofed and picked up chocolate whey instead of vanilla, but it's all good. I loosely (and I do mean loosely) followed a recipe suggestion on the back of the protein powder can, mainly for the powder amount. Here's what I did:

8oz (1 cup) fat free milk
2 large tablespoons of low-fat plain yogurt for tangyness
1/3 cup of the whey protein
half a small bag of organic frozen berry whole mix (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc)
Blend the hell out of it.

I actually wind up with 2.5 glasses of the smoothie, which would be roughly equal to one of the large Bolthouse drinks. This smoothie isn't sweet at all- well, not in the way I think of sweet. It's thick, mind you, but it doesn't have that cloying taste on the palate that I've come to associate w/ protein drinks of any type. I may actually increase the fruit content, because the tangy yogurt is masking the actual taste of the fruit.

Oooooh the possibilities before me now! I will admit, I have some small Bolthouse drinks in the fridge still; I really do enjoy them. But, I'll likely phase the protein ones out of my diet and just stick to their juices. Mmmm, prickly pear lemonade....

I think perhaps I might want a juicer at some point as well. >_>
