Ingredients

2 cups water

About 3/4 cup ice 

2 scoops vanilla protein powder (I use Vital Performance Protein Powder (I love it because it's gluten and diary free), available on Amazon here, which has 130 calories, 6 carb, 0 fat, 25 protein)

1 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries (225 g)  (90 calories, 22.5 carb, .75 fat, 1.5 protein)

Instructions

In a high-powered blender (I love my vitamix!), blend the ingredients. Pour the smoothie into a large cup. I like to use a quart size mason jar and a wide glass straw.
