Filling Green Endurance Smoothie
Hi Everyone,
Today I am sharing another smoothie recipe. I have been on smoothie bender. :)
I switch up the ingredients a little bit from day to day, but I have been having some variation of this smoothie every day for the past week or so. Usually I have it for breakfast or for a snack.
I show the process in the video, but I am also posting the recipe below. Just a few more hours until my 5K. It's my first evening race, and I am pretty excited about it!
Enjoy,
Melissa

1 Frozen Banana (sometimes I use 1 sliced pear instead, but I was out of pears)

1/2 cup 0% Plain Greek Yogurt (or vanilla if you like it sweeter)
