Chocolate Mint Protein Shake Recipe
Protein is an essential macronutrient that your body needs to help build and maintain muscle mass, and it plays a vital role in promoting satiety. It’s required in larger amounts (hence the term macronutrient vs micronutrient), which is why it’s important to replenish it in the foods that you eat!
But, eating enough protein in a day from a variety of sources isn’t an easy task, and it’s something I struggle with during the busy work week. That’s why protein shakes are a great way to incorporate more nutrition into your diet, and it simply doesn’t get tastier than this Chocolate Mint Protein Shake!
In This Recipe
To pack as much protein as I can into this drink, I use a variety of ingredients including 310 Shake and collagen. Additionally, I use pea milk to blend everything together because this milk alternative has higher amounts of protein compared to other plant-based milks.
I love having this protein shake for lunch because it contains 38g of protein and 10g of healthy fats for a balanced meal that will keep me full until dinner. If you’re looking for a new and exciting way to increase your protein, keep reading for the full recipe!
What You Need to Make this Shake
Let’s first review the ingredients in this shake. I used 310 Organic Chocolate Mint, unsweetened pea milk, frozen banana, frozen cauliflower rice, plain Greek yogurt, 310 Collagen, and ice. For a stronger mint flavor, add a couple drops of mint extract or a few mint leaves.
