Here’s a recipe for a super easy smoothie that can be used as an easy breakfast or a high protein and energy snack option after a workout.
2-3 Dates, pitted
1 small banana, peeled and chopped (option to be frozen for a creamier texture)
1 Tbsp. peanut butter (no added sugar & salt) – you can actually use any nut butter of your choice here like almond or cashew!
150 ml low fat milk
100 ml low fat plain yoghurt
Ice cubes
1 scoop (30g) protein powder (optional- I would suggest vanilla or chocolate flavor so the flavor of the smoothie doesn’t change too much) Place the above ingredients into a high powered blender and blend until smooth.
To serve, pour into a glass or into a shaker if you are on-the-go.
Easy peasy!
