I love this protein smoothie/shake (recipe courtesy of a good friend of mine). I made it for my daughter, Britt, while she was here visiting a while back and she said, "It must have to grow on you... it still has that protein aftertaste." Another daughter, Lolo, said, "I don't like feeling like I have to chew it." Just warning you if you have a strong aversion to a "protein aftertaste" or chewy smoothies!!
I, on the other hand, immediately liked it. It tastes like a blueberry graham cracker milk shake - but so much healthier for you!
Give it a try. Then give it another. It just might grow on you, or you just might think it's delish right off the bat.
Makes 2 servings.
2 scoops protein powder
1/2 cup fiber cereal (the kind with NO SUGAR)
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 cup water
1 cup ice cubes
Combine all ingredients and blend together to desired shake consistency. Yes, I use my trusty $20 Oster blender and it works just dandy. A Blendtec, Vitamix, Magic Bullet, Ninja or any other fancy blender would work, too {wink}.
Approx. 185 calories, 3 grams of fat, 24 grams of protein, and a lot o' fiber (8.8 grams).
Good for you, I tell ya.
