Vegan Chocolate, almond and banana protein shake

Thursday 26 June 2014



I've been trying to work on my fitness recently, (slowly but surely!) so I have been experimenting with a few shakes. This one is amazing! It uses hemp protein powder which is a complete protein, meaning it contains all your essential amino acids as well as being a rich source of omega 3 essential fats. I combine with spinach, rich in folic acid, vitamin C and iron ( you really can't taste it ) bananas, a rich source of potassium, and some amazing Alpro dark chocolate flavoured almond milk.  I then blend in my breville blender ( this is amazing, it is the quickest way to blend with minimal washing up, you can also make up two bottles for on the go) You're left with a  delicious power shake.

Ingredients



A handful of organic spinach 
2 or 3 table spoons of Hemp protein powder
A glass or two of Dark chocolate flavoured almond milk
3 ripe bananas.
Blend!


Do you have you got any recipes for some amazing vegan smoothies/shakes?
