I made a smoothie this morning that tasted a bit like an Orange Julius.... (not that I am old, but it seems like something the "younger" crowd wouldn't recogize).

For those who do remember... I made mine with:

1 scoop Vanilla Protein powder (can't remember which brand, from GNC)

2 oz Minute Maid Light Orange Drink (the one with 50 cals per 8oz)

3 oz Nonfat Milk

1 cup frozen Mango chunks

Blend until smooth. Add milk, juice, or Water to thin to taste. Add more frozen Mangoes to thicken.
