Don't gag before you try it. The bananas actually make this smoothie quite sweet while the almonds, beans, and milk provide almost 20 grams of protein per serving. Oh, and take a look at the 11 grams of fiber you will consume. For less than 400 calories, you can enjoy a smoothie that is simple, cheap, and packed full of vitamins and minerals.
