If you have a busy schedule or need a break from cooking, try our Banana Berry Protein Smoothie. It combines fruits, oats, and protein powder, making it an excellent snack or meal replacement choice. All you need is a blender and five minutes to make this tasty and nutritious drink.
We especially like this smoothie as a pre or post-workout meal. As a pre-workout snack, drink the smoothie 90 before working out. As a post-workout snack, drink the smoothie within 30 minutes post-workout. In both cases, the protein helps to repair muscles, while the carbohydrates provide energy and aid in recovery.
Base Ingredients:
– 300 ml of skim milk
– 40 g of old fashion oats
– 1/2 cup of mixed berries (Target’s Triple Berry Blend)
– One banana
– One scoop (25 grams) of chocolate whey protein
Instructions:
- Add above ingredients to a blender.
- Pulse/mix until smooth and creamy.
- Pour and enjoy!
Although we listed this Banana Berry Protein Smoothie as two servings below, feel free to drink the entire smoothie at one setting provided that you can fit it into your macros.
