Citrusy lemon, creamy greek yogurt and tropical pineapple make the TASTIEST protein smoothie to energize your morning.
Today, I’m sharing a sneak peek of one of my favorite smoothie recipes from the new Summer Meal Plan, the Sunrise Surprise Smoothie.
This recipe is based off of a recipe that my grandpa used to make for me growing up. It’s packed with the protein and high quality fat to keep you satiated while minimizing sugars to help keep insulin (the storing hormone) from greatly spiking.
In other words, this is a PERFECT breakfast to have for your weight loss or wellness journey!
