A fruit smoothie is an easy, on-the-go breakfast option. A high protein fruit smoothie is even better, as it can provide that extra punch of what you need to start your day off right. These drinks are the best way to add fruits and vegetables to your diet. This version of fruit smoothie adds an extra kick of protein. I used the Vega Proteins and Greens chocolate flavor drink mix. You can add whatever you would like for extra benefits.
