31 Perfect Fitness Smoothies

But hey, it's written by a guy who will tell you how gorgeous he is, what six pack abs he has, and how many people fall at his feet, so it must have something going for it, right? I don't know what that thing is, but apparently some people do. There are some nice recipes for smoothies in this book but it's not as useful to me as I'd hoped because it relies completely on one brand of protein powder. It contains stevia, which I can't have, and since there is no discussion of different types of protein powders, which are the basis for the smoothies, there are no choices offered that might have helped me out.

For that reason, I can't give it any more than 2 stars. If they ever re-release it with more choices of protein sources, it would make it a MUCH more useful book.

Any nutrition book that doesn't address food allergies and offer alternatives is going to be marginally useful. Get to Know Us.

Then blend blend blend, pour, slip in a straw, sip, and… Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I foresee countless more of these smoothies in my future this summer! The recipe is easily doubled or tripled to serve more. Pour into a glass and drink immediately.

The former adds a sweet vanilla note but also a slight aftertaste, whereas the latter is basically flavorless. If using PlantFusion vanilla bean protein powder , add 1 scoop 30g. Set the pieces onto a small baking sheet, and place in the freezer for at least 1 hour or until frozen. Transfer the chunks to a labeled freezer-safe zip-topped bag, and squeeze out all of the air.

Depending on your tastes or protein powder, additional sweetener may be needed. That is so hot, I have never experienced weather like that! This smoothie looks a-maz-ing; I love it how you used cashew milk, it must make it so creamy, especially with the banana as well. Hi Amy I had a doubt! This smoothie looks amazing but I was wondering if protein powders are drank exclusively after a workout or if they can be drank anytime during the day as they are very high in calories?

Protein powders can be consumed at any time of day. The two I recommend for this recipe are much lower in calories than other brands but still very high in protein, which is why I love them so much. I hope you enjoy the smoothie if you try it! I love Jamba Juice smoothies! I love the one with peach and mango in it. Now I will have to remake my own favorites too! I love jamba, but it is crazy how much it costs!! I got a fancy new blender for my birthday Ninja!!

In that time, she also polished off the smoothie and went to work with a smile on her face. A clean eating, filling and delicious smoothie which tastes like dessert?

Yep, this has it all and is SO easy! Regardless of which method you prefer, it will still be super creamy and ice-cream like, although it may be more frozen ice cream versus melted ice cream! If you are in the former camp normal ice-cream like , consider using less milk than normal.

In fact, expect a cheeky recipe to come soon based on this particular recipe and this particular recipe. It will still be super creamy thanks to the nut butter and banana , but just less thick!

Whether you like a super chocolatey smoothie or just a hint of chocolate goodness, this can be adjusted based on your preferences! I usually go VERY heavy on the cocoa powder, often combining dark cocoa powder with normal cocoa powder. For a less intense chocolate flavor, keep the serving size to a tablespoon first, then add a little more to taste.

Peanut butter is my go-to nut butter for this chunky monkey smoothie, as it stays true to its namesake, but feel free to use whichever nut or seed butter you have on hand!

For those with nut allergies, sunflower seed butter or soy nut butter are two favorites! Regardless, this healthy smoothie is completely paleo, vegan, gluten free, dairy free and naturally sweetened! Unlike my other protein powder recipes, this one CAN use a whey based protein powder. Besides the usual brown rice protein powder , casein protein powder or paleo protein powder I recommend, I enjoy the taste of this whey based one.

Regardless of which one you choose, ensure you like the flavor. Some can be incredibly overpowering or result in a mud-like texture.
