Today is all about protein powder. As mentioned in Monday’s P90X meal plan, I’ve been drinking protein shakes every morning for breakfast and have come to really enjoy them. It’s fun to get creative with the recipes. I’m sharing my first of what will be many protein shakes on GMHO, and I hope you find it as delicious as I do!
Ingredients:
- 6 oz. Brewed coffee, cold
- 10 oz. Milk
- 1 scoop Chocolate protein powder
Instructions:
- Shake all ingredients together until smooth. Drink!
If you want more of a slushy frappuccino-type drink, then you could throw the ingredients along with some ice in the blender. I haven’t tried it yet, but it seems like a good time.
Also, I discovered the shake is an amazing breakfast to have on the go because 1. it keeps you full for hours and 2. it allows you to consume your morning coffee without needing time to actually sit down and drink a hot cup of it. Don’t get me wrong, I prefer drinking a normal cup of hot coffee, but this works well when you need to be places ASAP.

I love adding whey to my smoothies for an extra boost and also I’ve been seeing a lot of recipes that use protein powder that I would love to try out.
I’ve always wanted to try something like this. I’ve got a recipe pinned on Pinterest, but do not own any chocolate protein powder!
My favorite way is to add protein powder to smoothies with fresh fruits and greens!
I love making protein pudding!
