Citrus Mixed Fruit Berry Protein Smoothie


So ever since I purchased my GNC Whey Protein Powder I have been addicted to making smoothies. This week I wanted to share one of my many recipe combinations.  I was feeling for something tangy, sweet, and citrus. I searched around my house and found the perfect fruits to combine in my handy one serving size Hamilton Beach Blender.  (I'll do a review on this baby in the near future) 

I know you're probably wondering how the heck does mixed berries and citrus taste but I promise you it is nothing short of delicious. It may seem unusual but the protein powder balances out majority of the taste!

Ingredients:
  • 1 scoop of GNC Mixed Berry Whey Protien Powder
  • 1 Dole Grapefruit Cup 
  • 1 Orange
  • 1 cup of Strawberries
  • 1/2 Banana
  • 4 cubes of ice
Instructions:
  • Combine all ingredients
  • And mix in your blender until your preference
  • Enjoy!
