STRAWBERRY BANANA WALNUT SMOOTHIE

Hubby came up with this one, so it has a few more calories and carbs than I use, but it is still nicely balanced protein and carb.

STRAWBERRY BANANA WALNUT SMOOTHIE

1/2 cup 2% cottage cheese
1 cup water
1 cup strawberries
1 scoop vanilla MRM whey
1 small ripe banana
1 handful walnuts
1 packet stevia

Put cottage cheese in blender, add water, and stevia if desired.  Add whey protein, strawberries, banana and walnuts.  Blend. 

You may add ice if you wish.

2 oz ham
