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 cup fruit juice (i.e. orange, cranberry, etc.)
For added nutrition use:
- 1 Tbls. soy protein powder
- 1 Tbls. molasses

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.)
