It’s Spring and the weather is getting warmer, which means you’re probably trading in your oatmeal for an icy cool protein shake to get your proper macros for the day, or for a quick snack that will satisfy your appetite for hours.
What’s great about protein shakes is that there are so many recipe variations that if you make sure to try different ones, you are not likely to ever get bored. These days, we have even been adding a shot of espresso to our shake drinks.
Here are some of our favorite protein shake recipes we found across the Latinx web.
Creamy Almond Butter, Spinach, Banana Smoothie by @EverydayLatina
This smoothie recipe specializes in creamy and smoothness, with banana giving it that gorgeous, refreshing yellow color, and then adds flax meal and spinach as nutritious-packed superfood. Gemma at @EverydayLatina suggests to add unflavored protein powder so that it doesn’t overpower the taste of the drink. She also shares a protein shake especially great for lactating mamas.
Horchata Protein
Annesa at Seeking Sunshine has a delicious and creative Horchata protein shake. Horchata – as many of you know – is a creamy and refreshing drink from Mexico. This drink is really easy and perfect for a new mom, which is what Annesa also is. It’s simply vanilla, banana, cinnamon, nutmeg, and protein powder. It’s a refreshing addition to your upcoming sunny summer days.
