The protein comes from almonds and hemp seeds, and although this smoothie may not look super special or amazing, it tastes perfectly sweet and creamy and has only about 22 grams of sugar. Offering 15.6 grams of protein and 9.3 grams of fiber, it follows the perfect formula for weight loss.

Since it's just five ingredients, this smoothie is incredibly easy to make and also adheres to a vegan or Paleo diet. If you don't already have hemp seeds, pick up a bag (from Trader Joe's), and this could become your new favorite go-to smoothie.
