I've been making this smoothie for years, and it's one of my favorites. I love the combination of berries, yogurt, and protein powder. It's a great way to get a lot of nutrients into my diet. I also love that it's so easy to make. I just throw all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to get more protein into my diet. I was working out a lot at the time, and I needed something to help me recover. I tried a lot of different protein shakes and powders, but I didn't like the taste of any of them. I decided to try making my own smoothie, and I'm so glad I did. This smoothie is delicious and it's a great way to get the protein I need.
