Protein Smoothie Recipe:
Disclaimer before I start sharing my recipes: I strive towards veganism with my recipes, because I am allergic to eggs and my body really struggles with processing animal proteins. However, my gut is totally fine with dairy. It’s very strange to me, so I use vegan proteins, but my smoothie recipes do contain some dairy that of course can substituted out for those true vegans out there!
Now that that is out of the way, let’s dive into my favorite post-workout smoothie! This recipe will make enough for two full glasses. My blue collar husband also enjoys this smoothie after work on occasion.
2 cups of frozen fruit – Personally, I love a strawberry, blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry mixture.
1 cup of almond milk unsweetened – I prefer unsweetened and no sugar.
0.5 cup of vanilla Greek yogurt – For some probiotics. Greek yogurt is not quite dairy free, however it only has one gram of lactose per ounce!
1 scoop of greens – Alani brand has the best tasting green mixture in my opinion.
1 scoop of protein powder – Can’t go wrong with Orgain or Vega. I usually alternate these brands based on what’s on sale.
1 scoop of Collagen Vital Proteins – Y’all already know I swear by this stuff.
3 teaspoons of Flaxeed (optional) – this helps with digestions and always guarantees me a bowel movement! TMI? Sorry, not sorry.
