This recipe was a happy accident.
This week, Ruben has been out of town and I’m not used to making my own coffee in the morning along with getting ready for work and Jazlynn ready for school.
Anyway, instead of coffee I’ve been making morning smoothies. Only today’s smoothie turned out a bit in the thick side. Of course I was in a rush so instead of fussing with thinning my creation I just twisted the cap on and headed out.
Once I got to work and swapped the lid for a handle I realized there would really be no way of sipping my “smoothie”. Voila! I decided it’s officially my Power Protein Yogurt 🙂
I grabbed a spoon and ate it up – it was creamy, but still light. This would be so good after a morning walk/jog. You can even use it as a sauce to mix in with a fruit salad. Maybe mandarins, raspberries, bananas, and diced apples.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 1/2 cup mango
- 1/2 cup avocado
- 2 tbsp protein powder
- water (as needed for desired thickness)
Instructions
- Cut fruit into small chunks.
- Put all ingredients into Nutribullet (or your blender) and blend for about a minute.
- Serve and enjoy.
Notes
Though the nutritional density of this recipe seems high, I can tell you it was very filling.
The only thing I’m ashamed of is the fact that I didn’t take any pictures of it. But just to tickle your senses I’m sharing links of smoothies that LOOK may taste like mine.
Here’s one, but it has more ingredients.
The color is more pink than mine on this one.
Here’s the closest – realizing others have made this!

I’m a huge fan of smoothies! Definitely going to try making this!!
I hope you enjoy it!
Smoothies with protein powder and fruit are my breakfast many days of the week. Quick and easy and healthy is what we need. Thanks for sharing your accident with us.
Your welcome, Teresa. They taste great, and the protein powder makes them filling, too!
