Natural Diet Smoothies

A couple of weeks ago I tried Weight Watchers vanilla smoothies. I found that they made an easy, quick breakfast that provided most of my milk and nutritional needs for the day. However, they have a lot of artificial ingredients and they are expensive. So, now, I'm creating my own smoothies. I use instant nonfat milk powder, soy protein isolate or egg white powder, and psyllium husk powder for my smoothie base, then I add fresh or dehydrated fruit for flavor and nutrition and artificial sweetener, if I'm in the mood for a sweeter flavor. This morning I had a Jackfruit Sesame Goji Berry Coconut Smoothie. Yummy, great nutrition, only 5 Weight Watchers points, and it keeps me satisfied until lunch! Here's another great smoothie recipe:

Chocolate Smoothie Recipe

1/3 cup Diet Smoothie Base

Nutrition and Texture
1 tsp goji berries
1 teaspoon dried shredded coconut

Flavor
1 tsp raw chocolate powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 packet saccharin or other artificial sweetener

Liquid
1 cup non fat milk

Put all of the dry ingredients in the blender. Measure milk. Add vanilla extract to the milk. Pour milk and vanilla into blender. Blend well. I use a Magic Bullet, which is very easy to set up, clean and store.
