Our Favorite Midday Snack

I've been in the midst of planning for next year (as well as enjoying summer) so I don't really have a lot of time to update this blog right now.  I still have some purchasing to do, but I think I feel pretty good about the upcoming school year. We have some fun stuff to work on!


However, I thought I'd pop in and share our favorite super-cool snack since the weather is really hot right now. We sometimes try new things, but this is our old standby. Everyone loves this smoothie and it is super easy (and inexpensive) to make:


2 FROZEN bananas (peel before freezing)
1 1/4 c. milk
3 T. chocolate protein powder (or 1 pkg. chocolate Carnation Instant Breakfast)
3 heaping T. of Greek yogurt (plain!)

Aaaaand... blend. That's it. So easy!
Makes 3 small smoothies or 2 big ones.

(Warning: Do not try with unfrozen bananas. Resulting smoothie will be gross. Also, do not try to be creative and add instant coffee. Resulting smoothie will be even grosser.)

It's Em-approved! Really, it is. She was so busy drinking that she couldn't be bothered to appear enthusiastic for the camera. ;)
