Cinnamighty Smoothy

I love making up new smoothies! I always try to concentrate as much good into as few calories and carbs as possible. This one is awesome for mornings. The cinnamon wakes up your mind and the almonds satisfy  your appetite.

Cinnamighty Smoothie:

1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (100 calorie available in many brands)
12 almonds (roughly 80 calories)
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
splash of vanilla
8 oz unsweetened almond milk (only 35 calories)
3 packets sugar free sweetener (stevia or splenda)
ice

Put all dry ingredients into your blender first. Then Pour 8 oz of almond milk into the cup you will drink your smoothie from, add ice to the cup with the almond milk, making sure the almond milk covers the ice (so you won't bog down your blender). Pour the ice and almond milk over the dry ingredients, add the splash of vanilla, and blend until smooth.

Like Chai? Add a little nutmeg and get that savory flavor.

Enjoy :) You just made a filling and delicious smoothie with very few carbs and 215 calories.
