Chocolate Banana Frosty Protein Shake

proteinshake

My life is now complete! After years of having the same post workout combo (protein power mixed with water and a 1/2 of a banana), I decided it was time to mix it up a bit. After what looked like a science experiment gone horribly wrong, I came up with this delicious goodness. I found the original recipe online and made some tweaks to make it my own.

1 scoop MRM All Natural Chocolate Malt Whey Isolate

1 c. Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk

1/2 Frozen Banana

1/4 Alcohol Free Vanilla Extract

5-6 ice cubes

Blend in your handy dandy Ninja blender and enjoy!

This shake is a perfect post workout replenisher as is, but if you would like to make it more of a meal, make these modifications to make it more filling.

Add: 1 T nut butter

Add: 2 T uncooked oats

Use: 1 frozen banana

But if you would like to jazz up this shake a bit, pick and choose what you you would like to add and make your own version.

1/2 c milk of your choice and 1/2 c cold coffee

1-2 T cocoa

1-2 T chia seeds

1 c spinach

1/4 c cottage cheese or plain greek yogurt
