Breakfast Smoothie

This would also make a nice dessert on days when you've eaten really light otherwise.

Fruit Smoothie for 1
125g of frozen berries and/or mangos
125g of milk (1% cows milk, soy, rice or oat)
scoop (25g) of whey protein
teaspoon of flax seed oil
tablespoon of ground flax seeds
Spenda/sucralose to taste (may be needed for berries)

Put all ingredients in a blender and give it a whirl. It will be thick. Add water if it's just too thick for you.

The cows milk version will be the most Zone balances and nutritious. My fruit recommendations apply - berries and mangos are your best bet here. Skip the bananas. The mangos are higher in nutrition than the berries, but have more natural sugar.

All versions are around 250 calories and provide 30-40% of the RDA and 15+ grams of protein.
