I love a good smoothie, especially if it has a scoop of protein to satisfy my hunger after a good run or workout. Sometimes drinking an entire glass of the same flavor gets a little boring, so I thought I would create a layered morning treat with this super tasty Rainbow Protein Smoothie. The blueberries, raspberries and mangoes really enhance the refreshing quality of this drink. The quick video shows you how easy this recipe is to make, so get blending. Enjoy!
