Healthy Fat and Protein Smoothie

This energy shake is perfect as a quick on-the-go breakfast or pre or post-workout boost!

Ingredients:

• 1 large or medium ripped banana

• 1/2 cup frozen blueberries

• 1/4 cup of organic oats

• 1 tablespoon of coconut oil

• 1 teaspoon of ground chia seeds or 1 tablespoon ground linseed

• 1 scoop (about 20g) of unflavored pea protein powder

• 1 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk (e.g., almond, oat milk, better if you do it yourself)

• Optional: 1 tablespoon almond butter (or any nut butter, except peanut)

Prepare the Ingredients:

Peel the banana and ensure the blueberries are frozen for a thicker shake.

1. Add to Blender: In a high-speed blender, combine oats, linseed, chia seeds, and pea protein powder.

2. Add ingredients: banana, frozen blueberries, and almond butter, and pour in the non-dairy milk. Adjust the amount for your preferred consistency (less for a thicker shake, more for a thinner one).

3. Blend: Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds.

4. Serve: Pour into a glass or to-go bottle and enjoy.
