Fruit and Protein Smoothie Recipes
If you are looking for a quick breakfast or snack, try one of these protein or fruit smoothie recipes. They're fast, satisfying, and are rich in vitamins and phytonutrients.
Mango Protein Smoothie Recipe
Mango also has many health benefits. It's rich in fat-soluble antioxidants called carotenoids, which are anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, protect the brain and nervous system, guard skin against sun damage, and are beneficial for people with angina, high cholesterol, heart disease, and acne. It's also rich in vitamin C and potassium. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS:
* 1 cup frozen mango cubes
* 1/2 cup organic vanilla yogurt
* 1/2 cup cold water
* 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
PREPARATION:
# Using the measuring spoon, scoop 1/2 cup of yogurt directly from the yogurt container and put it in the blender.
# Fill the measuring spoon with 1/2 cup water and put it in the blender.
3. Using the measuring spoon, put 1 cup of mango into the blender.
4. Add 1 scoop of whey protein powder.
5. Blend until smooth. Pour into a glass or travel mug and serve.
Peach Protein Smoothie Recipe
Peaches are rich in the antioxidants carotenoids, vitamin C, and potassium. The best part is they pair very well with flaxseeds. Flaxseeds are a source of lignins, an excellent source of plant estrogens that don't carry the same potential hazards as the other well-known plant estrogen, soy. Flaxseeds are also a good source of beneficial omega-3 fats and fiber. There is some research that flaxseeds can prevent hot flashes, osteporosis, breast cancer, and heart disease. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS:
* 1 cup frozen peach slices
* 1/2 cup organic vanilla yogurt, low-fat or non-fat
* 1/2 cup cold water
* 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
* 1 teaspoon flax seeds
PREPARATION:
# Add 1 teaspoon of flaxseeds to the blender
# Using the measuring spoon, scoop 1/2 cup of yogurt directly from the yogurt container and put it in the blender.
# Fill the measuring spoon with 1/2 cup water and put it in the blender.
4. Using the measuring spoon, put 1 cup of peach slices into the blender.
5. Add 1 scoop of whey protein powder.
6. Blend until smooth. Pour into a glass or travel mug and serve.
Berry Protein Smoothie Recipe
Berries are high in fiber and antioxidants called flavonoids, which are anti-aging, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory. They strengthen blood vessels, decrease excess estrogen, and are beneficial for high blood pressure, allergies, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, premature aging, rosacea, varicose veins, Raynaud's, eye disease, fibroids, and breast cancer prevention. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
