Protein Banana Berry Workout Smoothie

Taking a bit of a pause from my nicknames of smoothies because I might end up forgetting all of those fun names!

Straight forward, quick and easy. I drink this smoothie after I train in the morning or in the afternoon. As much as I can, I try to have protein in all my meals so I don’t just “meet my macros” but because protein provides satiety.

More than macros, I also make sure that I am full in every meal, I eat slowly (or in this case, drink slowly) and also eat when I am truly hungry. Foundational food habits beats any fad diet.

1 cup frozen strawberries

1 cup frozen banana

2 tsp Chia Seeds

2 tbsp Flax Seeds

1 serving vanilla protein powder

1/4 cup Mixed Berries or Vanilla Yoghurt (you can also opt this out or replace it with frozen mixed berries instead)

1 cup Unsweetened Soy/ Vanilla Milk (or better yet, oat milk, if you’re a fan of that too)

This recipe, like most of my recipes for smoothies, always yields two servings. Double up, or cut in half depending on who’s drinking!

What are your go to protein drinks post training? Let me know in the comment down below!

Love and light
