Basketball Camp started this morning. It was a little hectic as I got the spouse off to work, made lunches for the older two for their workday and getting everything ready for Basketball camp. I decided Tim and I would drink our breakfast this morning.
We started our day with a Peach-Banana smoothie. I love smoothies because you can be creative in making this delicious drink. I had a peach in the fruit bowl and I always have bananas either fresh or frozen. The big question was if the oldest ate all of the Greek yogurt. Luckily, he saved us some.
I put a banana, one peach peeled, some honey, Greek vanilla yogurt, ice, a dash of cinnamon, some orange juice and Whey protein powder in the blender. Within a minutes - I had to scrap down the sides Tim and I had our breakfast. I ran out to the garden and picked some mint to use as a garnish. I also had some orange zest that I sprinkled on top.
I added some Whey protein powder but you do not need to. I thought it would give Tim an extra boast for camp. Besides we both like it and it adds a little extra to our smoothie.

Hoepfully the peaches will arrive soon:) Thanks for sharing, Geraldine...I'm just curious, what kind of protien do you use?
