Protein shake

Protein shake makes a quick, nutritious and a convenient on-the-go breakfast or a mid-afternoon snack. All you need is a container with a tight fitting lid and some tasty protein powder. (If you are feeling adventurous you may experiment with adding optional dry ingredients such as powdered greens and ground flax seeds).



For my morning protein shake, I use a 16 oz glass [almond butter] jar, rice milk, chocolate undenatured whey protein powder or hemp protein, powdered greens, quercetin, matcha green tea, and multivitamin powder.

Here's a basic protein shake recipe!

Ingredients:

1-2 scoops of protein powder: undenatured whey, rice, or hemp
1 cup of water or non-dairy milk: rice, almond, or coconut

Optional ingredients:

1 tsp powdered greens, spirulina or matcha green tea power
1 tsp powdered reds or quercetin
1 Tbsp ground flax seeds, wheat germ, or oat bran
1 scoop of powdered multivitamin


Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a glass jar with a lid, or a similar container with a lid.
Tighten the lid; make sure the lid is snug around the mouth of the jar.
Shake the jar in your hands until all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Enjoy!

Preparation time:
1-5 minutes
