protein shake revision!

I made some rookie mistakes yesterday when I added fruit and vegetables to my protein shake. I put so much in that there wasn't room for hardly any ice. By the end of the drink, it just tasted like lukewarm beet juice. Today's is much better!   1 scoop of market pantry chocolate protein 3 tablespoons of organic fat free vanilla yogurt 1/2 large organic cucumber 1 handful of organic blueberries lots of ice   This is a much smoother taste. And according to the interwebs, cucumber is a natural anti-inflammatory!

Protein Shake

I bought organic produce today and added some new things to my protein shake. I put the following in the blender   1 scoop of Market Pantry's chocolate whey protein shake 3 heaping tablespoons of fatfree vanilla yogurt 1/3 of a raw beet sliced 1/2 of a raw cucumber sliced 2 large strawberries 1 handful of blueberries ice   It is very good. I deem it a success!

Protein Mocktails

Today's protein shake is too good to be believed. After seeing the recent Dr Oz show about cancer risks from eating too much dairy, I wanted to try making a protein shake without adding yogurt or milk. The following ingredients were put in the personal blender:   1/2 protein scoop (target's market pantry chocolate whey protein) 1 whole peeled lime ice water   And that's all. It's GORGEOUS. It's probably a bit too tart and could use the rest of that protein scoop to balance out the lime. But I wanted to break up my protein shake into 2 shakes.   EDIT:   I take it back. It's WAY too tart. It needed the full scoop and maybe yogurt to soften it up.

Peppers in the protein shake

So I as I'm watching Dr Oz, I am reminded about how excited he gets about peppers. I like peppers too, but sometimes I forget to look for ways to sneak them into my diet. Today's protein shake includes 6 mini bell peppers--2 yellow, 2 red and 2 orange. And it tastes interesting! Well, it's not awful, especially considering how many I was able to get in there. So in all, the shake has   1 scoop of chocolate whey protein powder --Target's Market Pantry brand 1/2 cup of reduced fat organic milk (usually I put in some low fat vanilla yogurt, but I'm all out) 2 tablespoons of pb2 (that's low calorie dehydrated peanut butter) water ice 6 mini bell peppers   Not bad, not bad!

Bloody looking protein shake!

My favorite protein shake concoction yet occurred yesterday.   1/3 of a large beet, microwaved a bit and peeled chocolate whey powder (target brand) ice 2 tablespoons of ff organic vanilla yogurt     All blended up it was absolutely gorgeous!
