Why Make This Recipe?
This protein smoothie is the perfect drink to kickstart your recovery before or after a workout. Filled with protein, fruit, and necessary sugars, I love making this drink when I need a pick-me-up.
Back when I was a collegiate athlete playing Division I field hockey, this smoothie (along with my peanut butter banana protein smoothie) was my go-to drink before or after practice. It leaves you feeling energized and athletic rather than stuffed and bloated. I always prefer a protein smoothie over a meal when I need to be active.
You should make this smoothie if you’re looking for a healthy breakfast to get your day started, a pre or post workout drink, or an on-the-go snack when you’re running around. I highly recommend this chocolate covered strawberry protein smoothie, you’ll absolutely love it!
