Power Smoothie Recipe
If this power protein smoothie doesn’t get you moving you’ll need to add pure adrenaline. A great smoothie recipe with power.
Power Smoothie
- 1/2 banana
- 1/2 cup yogurt
- 1/2 cup fruit juice (i.e. orange, cranberry, etc.)
For added nutrition use:
- 1 Tbls. soy protein powder
- 1 Tbls. molasses
- 1 tsp. wheat germ.
Blend until smooth. Then add frozen fruit, i.e. strawberries, raspberries, etc., one at a time, until smoothie is consistency you desire. The basic recipe is: ice, fruit, yoghurt, juice and/or milk. (I usually stick to juice, but sometimes add just a splash of milk to smooth it out.)
Strawberry Soy Smoothie
Adding the soy and tofu gives this a protein boost along with all the helpful nutrition provided by soy and tofu.
Strawberry Soy Smoothie Recipe
- 1 cup vanilla soy milk
- 5 ounces silken tofu, firm, chilled and cubed
- 2 cups frozen or fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Combine in blender. Makes 2 shakes.
