Fruity Energizing Protein Smoothie

October 8, 2014 by Amanda R DeWitt

fruity energizing protein smoothie

This fruit smoothie has been on my menu for the past few weeks and I finally decided to photograph it and write it up for another lovely blogger. It has 2 ingredients–yup. Just two! You can see why this has been a regular smoothie recipe as of late!
The two ingredients are also shelf stable. This is so important when you are a sick walking zombie who can’t sleep at night because of the incessant coughing (me the past two freaking weeks) and can barely manage driving to work so there’s no way she’s doing a big grocery shopping trip for fresh fruits and veggies and almond milk to whip up a healthy fruit smoothie.
