Smoothie Goodness

The nutritional methodology of my current fitness challenge is to eat five to six small meals per day. Protein smoothies count as a "meal", so this morning after my workout I tried a little experiment. I took a handful of ice cubes, a scoop of vanilla whey protein powder, 6 oz of Yoplait Light Fat Free yogurt (blackberry!), and 8 oz of 2% milk, and put 'em all in the blender.

I was shocked at how good it was. If I replace the 2% milk with skim, it comes in at 295 calories, 2 grams of fat, 33 grams of carbs, and 35 grams of protein.
