Blackberry Pie & Ice Cream Whey Smoothie



Ingredients
1/4 c. whole milk
3/4 c. 2% Greek yogurt
3/4 c. frozen Cascade blackberries (tarter and smaller than most blackberries, measured by volume)
1 t. vanilla extract
1 t. chia seeds
sprinkle Saigon Cinnamon
1-2 scoops whey protein powder, enough to add 20g protein
1.5 t. brown sugar, optional

Directions
Blend and enjoy!

DIY Smoothie Pack Directions
Blend everything except the milk, protein powder, and fruit and freeze in silicon 1 oz. ice cube trays. 6 cubes + protein powder in a zipper bag.  Freeze.  Empty the bag into a blender.  Add 1/2 c. liquid and you have frozen yogurt / soft serve you have to eat with a spoon!  Let the smoothie pack contents thaw before blending if you have an older blender, or want a less thick smoothie.  Adding the protein powder thickens and "bulks" the smoothie and I haven't measured how it changes the volume in my DIY smoothie cubes.
