Start your day with a Peppermint Smoothie! The Greek yogurt is packed with protein, so you are certain to be satisfied for hours if you drink this for breakfast!

I actually have a couple of more cookie recipes to share with you, but I thought I would take a momentary baking break and share this healthy Peppermint Smoothie with you.

I’m a big smoothie fan. I drink them several times a week, and if you are a friend on The Foodie Affair’s Facebook page, you have seen many of my concoctions there.  I follow a basic recipe, which you can find here, but that’s just a guideline. The variations are endless!  Sometimes I keep the ingredients dairy-free and full of fruit, but for the stick to my ribs full meal satisfacition, I add a protein like yogurt or protein powder.

I should share more of my smoothie mixology recipes on my blog, but whipping up a beverage happens when I’m ten minutes behind schedule, and running out the door for work, so there is no time for pretty pictures!

Except for today! See I took an extra vacation day to unpack my suitcase from my Hawaii trip, go grocery shopping, bake, and leisurely enjoy a smoothie!

This smoothie is low fat, under 150 calories, and packed with 17 grams of protein!  AND no one has to know that it’s healthy 🙂

Take a few minutes to add the sanding crystals. It made me feel like I was drinking a high priced milkshake from some fancy-smachy restaurant. Quite decadent and special for sure, and guilt free!
