Featured Recipe: Protein Smoothies
Nutrition experts the world over call breakfast The Most Important Meal of the Day. Sad truth is, I hate eating first thing in the morning and always have. But a balanced breakfast is indeed crucial to healthy bodies. In fact, breakfast may be more important in middle age than ever before – creating a healthy metabolism that burns dangerous belly fat and maintaining regularity.
Fruit smoothies are one of the few foods that appeal to me before noon. Fortunately our recipe for Protein Smoothies has it all in the healthy department – low in calories and fat with a good dose of fiber and protein. And they taste terrific, too -- a regular breakfast savior in my book!
Do you ever make smoothies for breakfast? What’s your fav?

These smoothies aren't just for breakfast. Try whipping them up for afternoon snacks and after-exercise treats. You can feel good about serving them any time.

What you're saying..
I purchased Cheap Fast Good, and received it last week. I started cooking from the book last Wednesday. With the exception of the ham I purchased for Christmas Day, I have cooked from this book 1-2 times per day. Let me say, this is the best cookbook I have, and has recipes that my family loves!!! Thank you so much for the cookbook. I'm hoping I can purchase Desperation Dinners soon, and if it is anything like Cheap Fast Good, it will be another favorite.
