It comes together in literally five minutes, making it the ultimate emergency breakfast
The protein keeps you satisfied for hours without that heavy feeling
You can customize it endlessly based on what you have in your kitchen

02 -

Frozen banana slices eliminate the need for ice and create an incredibly thick, creamy texture
Letting the blender run too long can actually thin out your smoothie from the friction heat
Greek yogurt can sometimes separate if blended with very acidic ingredients, so add fresh fruit after the initial blend
