2 tablespoons fresh mint washed, pat-dried
1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons strawberry or vanilla protein powder
2 tablespoons sesame seeds

You may add a teaspoon or two of a liquid no-calorie sweetener to sweeten this smoothie.
For the vegan/vegetarian version, replace protein powder with a vegan one and replace the Greek yogurt with an equal amount of unsweetened almond milk.
