*Sugar Free, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Nut Free, *Dairy Free Option
Ingredients:
- 1 large handful ice (unless you have a good high-torque blender such as a Vitamix or Thermomix, you should use small cubes)
- 4 scoops (about 70g) 100% WPI Protein Powder (*OR plant-based protein powder for dairy free/vegan option) You can use any, but I like a good clean Whey Protein Isolate, with no added sweeteners or nasties, for rapid absorption.
- 1 heaped Tsp. organic unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 large banana (I used frozen – that’s where my overripe ones always end up!)
- 1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk, or a mix – if you can tolerate nuts for lower calorie option)
- 1 tbsp. chia seeds
- 2 Tsp. mesquite powder
- 2-4 Tsp. Natvia or other natural sweetener to taste. (Reduce this amount if you are using a sweetened protein powder or just don’t have a sweet tooth.)
Combine all ingredients in blender and process until smooth. (TM – 20 sec. / Speed 9)
Enjoy!!
