The ingredients for Gregory's Power Smoothie are:

1/2 cup soy milk (unsweetened)
1 tbsp of protein powder
1 small frozen banana
1/2 cup of frozen berries (can be mixed or just one kind of your favorite)
1/3 cup diced frozen pineapple
1 tbsp flax seed
1/4 cup of water

Here is how you make Gregory's Power Smoothie:

Throw the water, soymilk, flax seeds, and protein (and optional greens powder) into the blender first and blend for a 10-15 seconds. This pulverizes the flax seed better. Then add everything else and blend until smooth. In general I just buy bags of frozen veggies from Trader Joes and mix-in whatever we have lyting around. I've tried the big frozen costco mixed fruit bags, but frankly whatever process they use to freeze or perhaps where they buy the fruit from leaves the fruit just bland tasting.Some suggestions: if you use vanilla protein powder use more tropical fruits like mango, bananas, pineapple. If you use chocolate, go heavy on the berries - especially blue and raspberries.You can also incorporate any protein powder you want. I am vegan so I am careful to choose only soy-based protein powders.Another thing I like to add is a healthy greens mix. This is your powdered wheat grass, spirulina, etc. I use the Greens Today mixture from organicfrog.com but use have the recommended amount or 1.5 tbsp otherwise it overpowers the smoothie.Number of Servings: 1Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CINEMANIAC.
