New tasty shake recipe for chocolate lovers!


Hands down the best shake I have made thus far and I have been trying lots of them.

Here is the recipe and as made, it serves as a recovery shake for post workouts since I have included L-Glutamine. For those not taking supplements and just wanting a damn tasty protein shake, I have marked some of the ingredients below as optional.

Place the following in your blender:

1 ripe small banana
1 scoop of chocolate Designer Whey Protein Powder*
1 teaspoon of L-Glutamine (Optional)
1 teaspoon of bee pollen (Optional)
1 tablespoon of ground flax seeds
1 tablespoon of almond butter
4 ice cubes (for consistency)
6oz of water

Blend. Enjoy.

*For those intimidated by large vitamin stores, you can find Designer Whey on the shelves at Trader Joe's for a decent price. Stay away from Trader Joe's brand of protein powder. The price is better but the added sugar is not.
