Smoothies

I'm afraid I've jumped on the smoothie bandwagon. They are easy, nutritious, and TASTY! Tasty being the most important reason, of course.

My friends, I would like to introduce you to the smoothie that is a whopping 283 calories and provides you with 25 grams of fiber and 50 grams of protein. Yeah. That's awesome. And as I mentioned above, it is pretty damn delicious, too.

Mango Kale Smoothie

Ingredients

1/2 banana (frozen to give the smoothie an ice cream like consistency)

handful of frozen mango chunks

1 stem kale (just tear it up a little, nothing fancy)

1/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt 

2 tbsp wheat germ 

1 tbsp slivered almonds

Directions

Throw it all in a blender or food processor. Blend. Drink. Smile. 

Also, it takes better if you drink it out of a mason jar. Science, folks.
