How to How make a great tasting whey protein shake / smoothie

If you have a regular workout routing, are trying to stay in shape, or are trying to build muscle, chances are that you are taking some type of whey protein product. I have tried a lot of different whey protein products, but my biggest complaint has always been the chalky taste. Here is how to make a really delicious and healthy whey protein shake / smoothie.

The first thing you need to do is place your whey protein, glutamine, strawberries, milk, ice cream, honey, and blender on the table or counter.

Pour 1 cup of milk into the blender.

Take three scoops of low-fat ice-cream and add them to the blender as well.

Take out three frozen strawberries and put them on your cutting board. Cut the stem and leafs off.

Drop your frozen strawberries into the blender with the milk and ice cream.

Open up your Strawberry Whey protein and add one full scoop (provided in the can) into the blender. I use XTREME PRO PLEX strawberry flavored Whey protein. It tastes great, but you can use your favorite strawberry whey protein for this step.

Open up your glutamine powder, and add a small tablespoon or 1 full scoop (from the can) into the blender. Glutamine powder helps your muscles recover faster from stress and injury. I like to add it.

Drizzle in about 1 tsp of honey over everything.

OPTIONAL STEP: At this point, you can also add about 1 tbsp of flaxseed oil as well. This is optional however.

Put 5-6 ice cubes into the blender as well.

Blend all of this up for about 10-15 seconds. Check to make sure that everything is all chopped up. If not, blend for another 5-8 seconds.

Pour your Whey protein shake/ smoothie into a glass and enjoy!
