Blueberry banana smoothie

Hi everyone! Apologies for the silence emanating from this corner of the Internet. I went back and forth to Southern Ontario twice in three weeks, which meant that I never really knew what was in my fridge or how long it had been there. Anyway, I’m hoping to get back to the regularly-scheduled programming of this blog.

Today, I bring you a blueberry banana smoothie inspired by the Fresh restaurant cookbook. I say “inspired” because I know they would definitely not approve of any beverage involving something as horrible as Splenda.

Ingredients

1 frozen banana

8 oz bottled mango juice

8 oz unsweetened, unflavoured soy milk (I used cow’s skim milk)

2 tbsp fresh or frozen blueberries

1 tbsp vanilla-flavoured protein powder (I used two of the unflavoured stuff)

1 tsp agave nectar (I used one package of Splenda)

Directions

1. Place all the ingredients in a blender. (I recommend putting the protein powder on the bottom so it mixes better) Blend, starting on a low setting and then switching to a highre setting, for about 1 minute. serve in a tall glass. Serves 2.
