Chocolate protein superfood shake
I like making this shake – it’s vegetarian (not vegan, because of the honey), full of protein and superfoods, and tastes a lot like a chocolate shake. The amounts of the ingredients vary depending on how you like your shake (super chocolatey, lots of protein, runny vs. thick), so you might have to experiment to find your blend. But here are the ingredients (try to use as many organic ones as possible):
1-2 bananas, depending on size (use frozen bananas to make it extra cold and thick)
Goji berries
Chocolate rice protein powder
Raw cacao powder
Raw maca powder
Bee pollen
Raw honey (raw honey is generally solid, not liquid)
Cold-pressed coconut butter
Ice
Hemp milk
The bananas, honey and coconut butter add smoothness and sweetness.
The cacao, protein powder and maca make it nice and chocolatey.
The protein powder and hemp milk pack it with protein.
The goji berries, maca, bee pollen and cacao are all superfoods.
Put everything in a high-speed blender and give it a whirl (I guess you can use a regular blender on this, but you won’t get as smooth a consistency, because of the berries and the bee pollen). Serve cold – I like to sip mine with a straw. Enjoy!
