Blueberry Protein Smoothie


This blueberry protein smoothie is a great pre-workout boost or post-workout meal. It’s packed with protein but still easy on the calories at less than 250 calories for a big smoothie. You can’t beat that! And protein smoothies are a great way to boost your protein when you’re lacking in that area in your diet.

My husband uses protein drinks pretty frequently because he loves weightlifting. Usually, he just puts his protein powder in a shaker along with milk or water, gives it a few shakes and guzzles it down. But have you ever tasted plain protein powder? I’ve never honestly found even one that I’d say tastes great. They’re all kind of chalky and unpleasant tasting to me. {Just my opinion. Fitness buffs, don’t hate me.}

But pairing protein powder with some fruit always improves the taste enormously. We use different brand of protein powder just depending on whatever we find a good deal on. We’ve tried MyProtein, Less Naked, and some store brands. Less Naked is definitely the frontrunner (doesn’t taste fake sweet like many protein powders do), but it’s pricey. Just use whatever vanilla powder you have on hand. Please note, however, that the nutritional data for the recipe will be slightly altered depending on the brand you use. But in any case, you should definitely get about 20+ grams of protein in this blueberry protein smoothie.

To get an even bigger kick of protein, add 1/2 cup – 1 cup yogurt or cottage cheese. Yes, cottage cheese may seem like an odd smoothie additive, but it’s great with berries because it makes the smoothie taste a bit like a cheesecake. And who doesn’t love cheesecake?
