My nutritionist-approved formula to a post-workout smoothie!! The best thing about “formulas” is that you can sub in your favorite varieties of fruit, protein, liquid and sweetener. Here’s the simple formula to make a smoothie that is about 300 calories and has 15 grams of protein, aka PERFECT for after an intense workout:
* 1 cup of 2 handfuls of frozen fruit—berries are a great addition because of their antioxidants
* 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or 10 grams of vegan protein)
* 1/2 cup milk + 1/2 cup water or 100% juice
* 2 tablespoons nuts
* 1-2 teaspoons sweetener, like agave, maple syrup or honey (optional)
* Note: If you don’t use frozen fruit, you may need a few ice cubes!
