Default High Protein "Orange Julius" Smoothie

I make this smoothie often and I LOVE it. It tastes alot like an Orange Julius. I posted it for someone and Zen gave it a try. She told me I should put it here. So here is is....one of my favorite morning meals.

1 sm container 2% Fage yogurt (17 gms)
1 envelope sf vanilla carnation instant breakfast (5 gms)
1 "on-the-go" orange crystal light (or try sf Tang to taste)
1 c ff milk (8 gms)
2 tsp vanilla extract
Splenda to taste

Put all ingredients into a blender and add ice if desired, until desired thickness.

This recipe will give you 30 grams of delicious protein!!

Zen suggested maybe putting in orange slices into the blender. If you can tolerate the natural fruit sugars that may be really good!
