I also freeze my smoothie concoctions, if I dont eat one right away! It makes a blender full so I use (2) 16 oz foam cups or (4) 8 oz foam cups. If they freeze solid, I put the foam cup in the micro on defrost for 1 1/2 minutes (power 3). It makes it edible by spoon. So YUMMY!! Since they are frozen and portable, I take them to work for my afternoon Protein snack!
Here are a few of my favorites-
strawberry banana Protein Smoothie (90 grams of protein!)
-handful of frozen strawberries (slightly defrosted-I leave 'em on the counter for about 10 minutes or put in micro on defrost for 45 seconds)
-1 ripe frozen banana (i break up ripe bananas into quarters and freeze)
-2 scoops of banana Protein powder
-2 scoops of strawberry protein powder
-1/2 cup of generic splenda
-1 cup diet cranberry juice
Tropical Protein Smoothie (It is close to the Tropical Trio from Keva Juice - minus the calorie and plus the protein!)
-1/4 cup frozen mango chunks
-1/4 cup frozen peaches
-1/4 cup frozen strawberries
-1 frozen banana
-1 small can of pineapple chunks in their own juices
-2 scoops banana protein powder
-2 scoops strawberry protein powder
-dash of vanilla extract
-1/2 cup generic splenda
-1 cup diet cranberry juice or Water
