Blueberry Vanilla Pomegranate Protein Shake
Usually when I am at work (which I will be in 6 weeks when my mat leave is up..) my post workout shake is simply some whey protein funnelled into a water bottle. However while I have access to my kitchen and all the goodies in my cupboards and fridge I have been making some very tasty blender protein shakes. Here is my recipe for Blueberry Vanilla Pomegranate Protein Shake:
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond breeze
- 1 scoop vanilla whey isolate protein
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 2 tablespoons frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup pomegranate juice
- 1 cup crushed ice
Mix all ingredients into a blender and enjoy.
You want to make sure you eat a mix of fast absorbing protein and simple carbs as soon as possible after your workout. Try to eat within a half hour.
