Start your day off right with a healthy Cranberry Orange Smoothie! This easy smoothie recipe is full of fresh zesty flavor. Add in some protein powder for a great post workout treat!

Ingredients

Handful of ice (about 6 cubes)
6 ounce Vanilla yogurt (any brand)
¼ cup fresh cranberries
¼ cup orange juice
1 large banana (I use mine frozen)
protein powder, optional

Instructions

In a blender, combine ice, yogurt, cranberries, orange juice and banana. Blend for 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides halfway if needed.
Add protein powder and blend, if desired. ENJOY!

Notes

If you make this recipe with all frozen fruit, it make be very thick as you blend it. Feel free to add a splash of milk or more orange juice until the smoothie reaches your preferred consistency.

Serve immediately in one big glass or divide it between two smaller glasses.

Add a few fresh cranberries to each smoothie for a pretty garnish. An orange wedge on the rim would be a fun finishing touch too.
