Drinking protein powder isn't always the most appetizing or filling.
Making smoothies isn't always the easiest when it comes to finding and pairing ingredients.
These recipes each have 4 ingredients and are completely manageable. Want to know the secret?
FROZEN FRUIT! (With no sugar added of course!) It's affordable a lasts much longer than fresh fruit so you don't have to worry about using it right away. Frozen fruit has all the flavor of fresh fruit and it gives you that desirable smoothie texture without watering it down!
These recipes are designed to be simple, tasty, and hide the texture of almost any protein powder.
Here are 5 of my favorite protein packed smoothies:
1) Berries and Cream
1 Cup frozen Berries
1 Cup Milk (any kind)
1 Banana (fresh)
1 Scoop Vanilla Protein powder (any brand)
2) Cocoa Banana
1 Fresh Banana
1 Cup Milk
1 Cup Ice Cubes
1 Scoop Chocolate protein
3) Chocolate Covered Strawberries
1 Cup frozen Strawberries
1 Cup Milk
1 Scoop Chocolate Protein
4) Banana Cream
2 Fresh bananas
1 Cup Ice Cubes
1 Cup Milk
1 Scoop Vanilla Protein
5) Certainly Citrus
1 Cup Frozen Citrus
1 Cup Milk
1 Scoop Vanilla Protein
Tips: When you make the smoothies, try almond milk for fewer calories. The brand or type (soy or whey) does not matter at all, I have tried multiple kinds and the texture gets lost in the frozen fruit.
Try your own variation and leave it in the comments!
Enjoy!
