I like Smoothies

I like smoothies because sometimes I’m lazy and I don’t actually want to eat my food, I just want to slurp up a smoothie that will take care of my nutritional needs. 

So here is my super awesome nutrition packed smoothie. 

1 scoop pea protein

1 scoop chocolate green super food (I reviewed this in a previous post)

Some spinach

Some mixed frozen berries

A dash of orange juice

Dollop of soy yogurt (optional)

Blend it all up, and yum! You can substitute kale for the spinach (I know, sounds gross but you can’t taste it, I swear). The orange juice adds some tartness and sweetness to help with the weird, bleh aftertaste of the pea protein. A banana works also. You just have to have the right combinations of other flavors that will last and overpower the bleh of unflavored pea protein powder.

There you have it, a smoothie full of iron, protein and all those other good vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
