Smoothie Throwdown

Last night I was challenged to a Smoothie Throwdown by one of my bootcamp trainers. I am assuming he was joking, because no one can beat this one as a post workout meal.

Super Duper Strawberry Smoothie:
1 cup HEB Mootopia Milk (Skim)
3 heaping tbsp MLO Super High Protein Powder
2 tbsp Alive Whole Food Energizer Liquid Vitamin
2/3 cup frozen blueberries (unsweetened, I freeze my own to be sure)
6 medium strawberries, frozen (also unsweetened, frozen by me)
1 tsp granulated stevia (natural sweetener, no calories)

Whiz it all up in the Ninja, and enjoy. I don't know any premixed smoothie on the market that can beat this one: no added sugar, no artificial sweeteners, a bazillion vitamins and minerals.. and it tastes good! Look at the nutrition on this bad boy:
