Smoothie Recipes

[AchillesAmbition]

I was just wondering if anyone had any good smoothie recipes? I'm most looking for something quick and painless to make in the morning with high protein, high carbs, and low fat. Looking for recipes for both chocolate and vanilla protein powders. Thanks for the responses.

Recipe Tips
1. For a smoother shake, add ingredients to blender one at a time.
2. Always add liquids first, powder second, and ice last.
3. Add more liquid for a "thinner" shake and less for a "thicker" shake
4. Add more ice for an ice-cream-like consistency and less ice for a milk-like consistency.
5. Add more or less fruit or other ingredients to suit your taste.
6. Don't forget to count the calories you are adding to each shake.
