Phase I approved smoothies?

I was trying to find some good recepies for a breakfast smoothie! I can literally choke down eggs in the morning or meat.

I just attempted a smoothie made of natural PB/0fatplain greek yogurt/1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder/2 packets of sweetnlow/ 6oz. water/ice.

Let me tell you, this was so nasty! I think mostly because I have (yoplait) greek yogurt brand and omg its soo sour!! yuck, this is not a good recepie.

I remember a long time ago I used to know of a good one that was phase 1 worthy but I cant remember anymore, all I remember was it had coffee grounds and cocoa powder.

Does anyone know any good smoothie recepies???

Hi,
A legal phase I smoothie can include any of the flavored sugar free syrups, ie: DaVinci. Make sure that the protein powder you use doesn't have any sugar added in it.

While I dopn't have an exact recipe, I know that if I wanted to make one, I'd use a small amount of reduced fat greek yogurt, maybe
1-2 tbs as it is sour tasting but yummy to me.

1 scoop of no sugar added protein powder( they come in flavors)
some ice cubes and a smalll amount of water.
Some will toss some fresh spinach in to get a veggie serving too. You don't taste but it will make it a green smoothie.

and then blend it up!
Be creative! Let us know how you do.
