Delicious! I drink protein smoothies several times per week and am always looking for new ideas. I had all the ingredients on hand and this one sounded really good - and it was! Of course the calorie count will depend on what whey protein you use (they vary greatly) and also your yogurt and almond milk choices. I used Optimum Nutrition French Vanilla Creme whey Dannon Light & Fit vanilla greek non-fat yogurt and Blue Diamond original sweetened almond/coconut blend. The calories came out to only 290 per serving and the serving size is VERY generous (I got to fill up my glass twice - YAY!). It is plenty filling and perfect as a quick breakfast or after-workout snack. Thank you Lela I'll be making this again and again! Read More

What a guilt free mid afternoon pick me up! I have shied away from protein powder because my DS uses it in nasty looking and smelling potions but it is fine this way. Thanks Lela! Read More

I was looking for a yummy protein smoothie for my growing son to send him off to school with a healthy addition to his breakfast. Now the whole family drinks it! We love it! I was out of mangoes so I also have used bananas. Delicious! Read More

Wonderful smoothie! My mango was very ripe so I thought this would turn out very sweet but it didn't. Needed to add a few tsps of the optional honey for my taste. I had to go with what I had on hand so I used plain Greek yogurt (adding a small amount of vanilla extract) and vanilla soy milk in place of the almond milk. I don't like to change out ingredients like that but sometimes you have no choice if you really want to make it. The texture was excellent and I didn't miss the usual banana. All-around great smoothie Lela! Read More
