Strawberry Shake

By bns0607

Mary created this smoothie for Jackson and William when they were recovering from tonsillectomies. Nursing sore throats, they were both sent to bed with ten days’ worth of antibiotics and codeine-laced Tylenol. With a generous helping of organic strawberries for a dose of fiber and antioxidants, a double dose of probiotic yogurt, and a scoop of whey protein to boost the boys’ immune systems, this nutritional meal replacement led to their speedy recovery. The results were astounding—no upset tummies after all those antibiotics, no constipation from all that codeine, and a “whey” quick recovery.

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup strawberry Bifidus Regularis yogurt such as Activia
• 1/2 cup vanilla probiotic drink such as Activia
• 2 cups frozen strawberries
• 1/4 cup whey protein powder

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the yogurt and probiotic drink in a blender. Add the strawberries and protein powder. Blend until smooth.
