A filling breakfast or post-workout recovery drink, this protein-packed smoothie tastes just like strawberry cheesecake! You can also substitute any other fruit for the strawberries, or add half the strawberries and half a different kind of fruit. (We love the classic strawberry banana combo!)Submitted by: OILPAINTER

I am vegan so I used vegetarian broth instead of chicken broth. Good stuff! - 8/19/09

Made this for my family and we loved it. Making it again today but will substitute 'no salt' canned tomatoes to get the sodium numbers down. Thanks for the recipe! - 2/24/16
