Chocolate, Coconut, Banana Protein Shake
Author’s Note – If you workout, then you probably already know the importance of taking protein powder to help “refuel” after a strenuous workout. Taking just the same thing all the time though gets boring, so I’ve come up with some different ways to jazz up a regular old protein shake.
Coconut, Date Shake
Coconut, Date Shake
Ingredients:
- 14 ounces coconut milk*
- 2 tablespoons Coconut Cream Concentrate (or more to taste)
- small handful of dates, pits removed (more or less to taste)
- 2 cups ice (more or less depending on thickness desired)
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil, melted
- optional: 1/2 cup soaked almonds or Brazil nuts for extra protein. Soak for at least an hour and rinse off water.
Directions:
Place all ingredients in blender. While blending, pour the coconut oil into the shake in a slow stream. Blend all really well for a great, healthy, nondairy desert or breakfast drink.
*Use 1 teaspoon of Coconut Cream Concentrate for every 6–8 ounces of water for coconut cream milk. Mix together and use as directed or make homemade coconut milk.
