Delicious Frozen Berry Protein Smoothie Recipe
Are you looking for a refreshing and nutritious smoothie recipe? Well, look no further! I am excited to share my all-time favorite smoothie recipe that I have enjoyed for the past year.
This protein-packed frozen berry smoothie is delicious and incredibly easy to make. Bob’s Red Mill approached me to create a recipe using their new almond protein powder, and I couldn’t be happier to share my go-to smoothie with all of you.
One of the highlights of this smoothie is its protein content. With the addition of Bob’s Red Mill Almond Protein Powder, this smoothie packs 20g of protein from the protein powder alone (31g total).
This makes it an ideal post-workout snack or a quick and nutritious breakfast. I have made this smoothie four times a week because it is good!
Now, let’s dive into the recipe and learn how to make this delightful frozen smoothie. The secret to a perfect frozen smoothie is using plenty of frozen fruit.
This gives the smoothie a refreshing chill and adds thickness and a slightly frosty texture. I recommend using a cup of frozen blueberries for this recipe to provide that icy element. While frozen strawberries can also be used, I prefer using fresh and ripe strawberries for a burst of flavor.
To make the smoothie, you will need a powerful blender. I prefer using a single-serve blender as it is quick, convenient and makes cleanup a breeze.
Add all the ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth and creamy. The result is a delightful concoction that will tantalize your taste buds. Let’s discuss why I trust Bob’s Red Mill Almond Protein Powder for this recipe. One of the reasons is its wide availability at local grocery stores.
You can easily find Bob’s Red Mill protein powder wherever their products are sold. Additionally, their protein powder contains 20g of protein per serving, making it convenient to incorporate extra protein into your diet without any added sweeteners or flavors.
Moreover, I appreciate Bob’s Red Mill’s commitment to providing high-quality and minimally processed products. Their emphasis on using real, whole ingredients that are recognizable and pronounceable is commendable. It’s refreshing to find a brand that prioritizes simplicity and quality in a world filled with overly processed foods.
Now, let’s get back to the recipe itself. Here’s a breakdown of the ingredients you’ll need:
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 3/4-1 cup almond milk
- 3-4 fresh strawberries
- 1/3 cup Bob’s Red Mill Almond Protein Powder
- 2 tablespoons Bob’s Red Mill Chia Seeds
- 1-2 tablespoons almond butter or natural peanut butter
- Optional: 1-2 drops almond extract
Once you have gathered all the ingredients, it’s time to bring them together and create this delicious smoothie. Here are the instructions:
1. Combine all the ingredients in a traditional blender or single-serve blender.
2. Blend the ingredients until they become smooth and creamy.
3. If the smoothie is too thick, add more almond milk to achieve the desired consistency.
4. Pour the smoothie into a glass or a to-go cup if you’re on the move.
5. Enjoy your protein-packed frozen berry smoothie!
Feel free to get creative with this recipe. You can replace the strawberries with a frozen banana for a different twist. If you’re a fan of almond flavoring, you can add 1-2 drops of almond extract to enhance the taste. And if you’re in the mood for a chocolatey delight, add some cocoa powder to the mix.
In conclusion, this frozen berry protein smoothie recipe is a taste, nutrition, and convenience winner. The goodness of Bob’s Red Mill Almond Protein Powder, frozen berries, almond milk, almond butter, and chia seeds provides a balanced combination of protein, vitamins, and antioxidants.
Whether you’re looking for a post-workout snack or a quick and nutritious breakfast option, this smoothie covers you. Give it a try and treat yourself to a delicious and wholesome beverage that will energize and satisfy you.
