Weight Watchers Breakfast Recipes - Smoothies

For a quick and easy breakfast on the run, it's hard to beat a delicious nutritious smoothie or protein shake. I love them all year long, but especially during the long hot summer here in Phoenix.

The key is not to get carried away since you can rack up the calories/points in a hurry if you're not careful about what and how much you toss into the blender (affiliate link).

To count or not to count, that is the question...

Curious, when you make a smoothie, do you count the points plus in the fruit or not?

As you know, when you use the recipe calculator the fruit counts as an ingredient and has points. But fruits are free on the program. What to do, What to do? I tend to count the fruit points in smoothies because I've found I can end up eating too much fruit and gaining weight if I don't. Sad, but true.
