Breakfast Smoothie For Heart Health



Can you tell I love smoothies? This one is a high protein, low fat, tasty breakfast smoothie, with a secret veggie. I have to watch my sodium and carbs so have highlighted those in the nutrition facts.


Ingredients:
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 cup blueberries
1 small banana
1 cup spinach
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 serving 1 packet splenda
2 oz soy protein
Directions:
In a blender mix juice with the frozen berries.
Add banana and spinach. Blend until mixed.
Add protein powder. Blend. Add remaining ingredients. Blend.
Enjoy!
Note:
Try different frozen fruit. You can use less spinach if it is too strong.
