My Three Most Common Protein Shake Recipes

Posted in Nutrition, Personal Training, Recipes, bodybuilding by sanantoniopersonaltrainer on the October 26th, 2009

Hey San Antonio,

Three simple protein recipes that I’m using right now.

Cinnamon and Oats

Vanilla Pro Complete 40
Quaker Oats
Ground Cinnamon

This is the shake I like to make in the morning, but you can make the vanilla with just the cinnamon and it is just as tasty for an evening snack.

I do not cook the oats in my shake – just measure and add to the blender. HOW much of each ingredient is based on your size and goals, of course. Add ice! Tastes great.

Mint Chocolate Smoothie

Crushed Mint (Seasoning Form) or Mint Extract
Chocolate Pro Complete 40

Of course, you can add oats if you need carbs. Same instructions as above!

“Peanut” – butter Cup

Chocolate Pro Complete 40
Almond Butter (or all natural Peanut butter)

Same instructions, but I add the water before I add the almond or peanut butter. Adjust the amounts to manipulate macronutrient ratio.

These are all simple. Again, oats can be added to any, but if you read you know that I never combine fat and carb sources in the same meal, so peanut butter plus oats in the same shake isn’t going to be a part of my diet, ever.

Remember, each scoop of Pro Complete 40 has approximately 20g of protein and 1/2 scoop of oats has roughly 30g of carbohydrates. So adjust accordingly based on the amounts you need at the time of day you need it.

Enjoy!
