Description

Here's my simple formula for the perfect protein packed fruit smoothie. I always use a banana, and whatever frozen fruit I have in my kitchen at the time. The yogurt and protein powder help to make it a bit more filling as a meal that could hold you over until lunch. This also works well as a smoothie bowl, just use a frozen banana.
