Smoothie Experiment

Kurt used to drink smoothies for breakfast most mornings, with frozen fruit, banana, protein powder, milk and yogurt. His kidney condition put a bit of a restriction on his protein intake, and initially the doctor thought it could have been a caused by the protein powder (it was not), so we strayed away from smoothies for a long time. But we're back...sort of. We are having kind of a hard time making our smoothies because we keep breaking our smoothie makers. Kurt had the Shake & Take, which was kind of funny but super convenient. After getting it out of retirement, it was a little out of practice and we had trouble using it the first time, but got it to work. The second time, it broke. So today I got the blender down, but dropped into a pan soaking in the sink. The pan was full of water, and now so is our blender.

So instead we are drinking our Trader Joe's almond milk plain. It's not quite as delicious.
