Too many carbs This is far too sweet and has way too many carbs for me. Cut the fruit by at least half- about a quarter cup of berries OR the banana is OK, and add a scoop of protein powder to make a smoothie that is healthy and will keep you from being hungry in an hour Pros: Lots of healthy stuff
Yummy - with revisionsI edited this recipe to cut down on some of the sugar and boost its nutritional index. Instead of 1/2 cup of fruit juice I instead use about 1/3 cup of almond milk, a splash of 100% cranberry juice (adds some tartness that I like), and the juice of one fresh juice orange. I also add in 1 cup of fresh spinach to the mix as well as a dollop of yogurt.Pros: Delicious, easy to makeCons: Maybe too much sugar?

I am new to counting calories and I am looking for a quick and easy breakfast smoothie. This looks simple enough, but I cannot find silken tofu at my walmart. What can I use to replace that but keep the calories about the same?
