💕Nope, I'm not talking about ice cream…it’s all about my favorite protein shakes! 💕
Protein is an essential macronutrient for building lean muscle mass and protein shakes can be an important tool for fitness gains and fat loss.
Not only does a protein shake meal replacement take only a few minutes to prepare, it keeps you on point with your nutrition while making it easy to avoid unhealthy fast food alternatives for a quick meal. Plus, you feel like you're having a decadent, sweet and creamy milkshake!
However, blending up the same combination of protein powder, ice and water every time sure can get boring.
❤️ The following 31 Flavors of Protein Shakes will destroy your protein shake boredom once and for all! For each of the recipes below simply combine the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Add extra liquid, fruit, protein powder or ice as needed to create your desired consistency and flavors. Serve immediately and enjoy!
TIPS:
