This chocolate protein smoothie blends banana and LANCEWOOD GREEK DELIGHT® Double Cream Yoghurt with cocoa and peanut butter for a nearly 35g protein hit that tastes more like dessert than a shake.
Peanut butter and cocoa lend real depth to this smoothie, while the yoghurt gives it enough body to be eaten with a spoon, cold, thick and rich with every mouthful.
Blended in the few minutes between waking and leaving the house, or straight after a workout when cooking feels impractical, it delivers a complete breakfast in a single glass.
Around 34.6g, from the LANCEWOOD® GREEK DELIGHT™ Double Cream Yoghurt, protein powder and peanut butter combined.
Yes, almond or cashew butter would both work in place of peanut butter, with a slightly different flavour.
Any milk or plant-based milk you have on hand would work, the almond milk here is mainly for thinning the smoothie to the right consistency.
Yes, the combination of protein, carbohydrates from the banana and a little fat from the peanut butter covers the basics well after a workout.
Smoothies are best blended fresh, since they separate and lose texture if left to stand, though the banana can be pre-sliced and frozen ahead of time.
Chocolate flavoured protein powder reinforces the cocoa, though vanilla works well too if that is what you have.
