As per usual, a FANTASTIC post Sam. I have smoothies just about every day, and utilize them primarily for getting in a high protein meal (plus, they're great for a meal-on-the-go!) You gave me some great ideas for some protein sources I hadn't thought of: hemp seeds and the pea protein powder (I use pea milk all the time) One other protein source your readers may be interested in, which will sound super weird at first, but trust me .... it works .... is canned beans!! If you don't care what color your smoothie is, use any kind that tastes great. But my recommendation is to go with a bland white bean ... like cannellini or navy. Rinse them, and start with 1/4 cup. It is a good ingredient to use if you're going to add in some frozen greens. My standard recipe is a 16 ounce can of peaches (including their juice), beans, and frozen greens. As I said, start with 1/4 cup or so, but now, I routinely use a whole can. 20 grams of protein, and a whole lot of fiber to boot.
