I get asked all the time about smoothies – so I thought I’d share my *most* favorite protein smoothie recipe with you. I absolutely love it.
Chunky Monkey Protein Smoothie
- 1 scoop chocolate peanut butter protein powder
- ½ frozen banana (I cut my bananas in chunks and then freeze them)
- ¾ cup coconut almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1 tbsp peanut butter
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- LOTS of ice
Put everything into the blender EXCEPT the ice – blend til smooth and then add the ice to get it cold and to thicken it up a little!
=====================================
Wondering what kind of protein powder you should use? Honestly, it’s whatever works for you. I use a product from Allmax nutrition – Isoflex pure whey protein isolate (and chocolate peanut butter is my favorite flavor). This works for me as I’m not sensitive to dairy but I know many people who prefer a vegan protein powder (I find they don’t taste as good).
If you don’t know what you like try to shop at places where you can buy single servings or get samples and test a few out so you’re not stuck with something you hate.
Enjoy!!!
