Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup chocolate protein powder
- 1 ripe banana frozen
Instructions
- Add all of your ingredients to a blender.
- Pulse the ingredients on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy. If your blender has a preset smoothie button then you can use that instead.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can freeze your own bananas or buy sliced frozen bananas at your local grocery store.
- You want to use about 1 cup of bananas.
- We like to use “vital proteins” powder or “just ingredients” protein powder, but you are welcome to use your favorite brand as long as you use 1/4 cup.
- Most protein powders use whey, but you can make this drink dairy free by using a pea protein powder and your favorite almond milk.
If you want a thicker protein shake then you can add extra banana OR a few ice cubes. You can also add ½ cup of plain or vanilla Greek yogurt or a few tablespoons of peanut butter. - These protein shakes cannot be stored, so only make as much as you want to drink.
- This recipe makes about 12 ounces.
