I’m going to have to try this. I like almond milk, chocolate protein, a banana, and half a scoop of powdered peanut butter. You should try powdered peanut butter from Costco, it’s so easy to add flavor to existing recipes.What's your favorite protein shake recipe?
I like strawberry shakes. For my favorite, the recipe follows.
If you're not diabetic, use:
Put these ingredients in a blender in the order specified, with the spinach on the bottom. Failing to stack the ingredients properly will strongly work against your ability to blend the ingredients.
- as much baby spinach as you can pack into the bottom couple of inches of a blender (optional),
- a full serving of the best-tasting strawberry-flavored protein powder you can find,
- 1/2 container of soft tofu,
- juice of one lemon (optional),
- 1 lb of frozen strawberries, and
- 12 to 16 oz of orange juice.
Blend till smooth.
Enjoy.
Note: This mixture is thick enough to kill normal blenders. If you bought it at Walmart, you'll just get to smell up your kitchen with the unmistakable odor of a burned-out electric motor. You need a strong bar blender, a VitaMix, or something similar that has a horsepower rating on the label. If it won't blend gravel, it's not strong enough.
If you're diabetic, substitute ice for the strawberries and water for the orange juice. The flavor will be flat so the lemon juice is mandatory if you do this substitution. Even then, It won't taste nearly as good but it'll do in a pinch.
LOLDoes throwing a medium rare steak in the blender count?
