Great Smoothie for the AM, had it today pretty early and helped me stay full for about 5 hrs or so and I was running around all morning with the oatmeal and protein powder. Very tasty, fruity and a little tart from the lemon juice, but nicely balanced out with the splenda and fruit. Keeps getting better every morning.
