An excellent breakfast.

March 16, 2009

Breakfast Smoothie:

(1) 4 oz. container of Yoplus Yogurt
(1) serving (two scoops) of Aria Women’s Protein powder
(1) serving (two TBSP) of Golden Roasted Flaxseeds with Blueberries (similar to this – I get mine at Trader Joe’s)
3/4 cup of 2% milk
1/3 cup frozen mixed berries, thawed
3-4 ice cubes, or 1/2 cup crushed ice

Throw it all in a blender and blend until smooth, dump it in a cup, stick a straw in it, and you’re done!

Each serving, when prepared with the ingredients listed above, is:
- 395 calories
- 44g carbs
- 12g fat
- 26g protein
- 50mg cholesterol
- 9g dietary fiber
- 67mg calcium
- 260mg sodium
- 215mg potassium

The protein powder is also an excellent source of Folic Acid, the Yoplus yogurt is a good source of probiotics, and the flaxseed powder is an excellent source of Omega 3’s.
