this smoothie could probably feed two, but i always gobble it up on my own. it's full of protein, natural carbohydrates, and has no added sugar [unless you decide to add a little honey]. i love the way the natural sugars from the banana combine with the cocoa powder making it a sweet, tasty treat. the tart of the greek yogurt and the coffee give it a nice little kick. it's a great way to start the day and will keeping you going, full force, until lunch time.
