This high calorie high protein smoothie is the perfect  option for breakfast or a post-workout snack!. But it's not just tasty – it's smart. Great for increasing calories and protein, it's a solid choice for building muscle, recovering after exercise, or bumping up those calories if you’ve been sick and don’t have much of an appetite.
