Smoothies
This tropically-inspired, delicious coconut mango smoothie is packed with protein and 3 servings of fruit that will help cool you off, shed unwanted weight, and keep you smiling. Daily Burn has created a project called #ShowUsYourSmoothie, open to all, to encourage people to eat a proper diet that includes a good source of protein. Check out their site which offers alternative protein sources as well as tasty protein-based recipes. This project inspired me to create this delicious Coconut Mango Smoothie which provides a meal's worth of protein and would be an excellent addition to anyone's diet.

By balancing proteins and carbs in a meal, you can stabilize insulin levels for 4-6 hours. This helps eliminate mood swings and keeps you feeling full for the duration. No more feeling hungry mid-morning or afternoon and nibbling on something you know you shouldn't have! This smoothie provides 3 of your required servings of fruit and vegetables (daily requirements average about 8 servings
