Instructions

IMPORTANT - do not add multi collagen protein powder at the start of blending.
Chop and peel ginger. Add to a high powered blender like a VitaMix, Ninja, or NurtiBullet along with frozen fruit, yogurt, and peeled banana. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
If mixture is too thick or if using Greek yogurt, add a little bit of water to help blend.
Add multi collagen protein powder to blender and blend on low just long enough to mix.
Too cold for a smoothie? Mix 8 tablespoons protein powder and 10 drops 100% pure Stevia liquid, more or less, to taste. Divide between 2 bowls and top each serving with 2 cups sliced frozen strawberries, thawed or 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries. Or choose another Skinny5 Jump Start breakfast.
