A filling breakfast or post-workout recovery drink, this protein-packed smoothie tastes just like strawberry cheesecake! You can also substitute any other fruit for the strawberries, or add half the strawberries and half a different kind of fruit. (We love the classic strawberry banana combo!)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup 1% Milk
1/2 cup Lowfat 1% Cottage Cheese
4-8 packets of Splenda (or sweeten to taste w/ your choice of sweeteners)
1/2 tsp. Vanilla or Almond extract (optional)
2 cups (300 grams) Strawberries, frozen, unsweetened
Tips:
Do not add the frozen fruit until cottage cheese is blended smooth.
Directions:
Place the milk, cottage cheese, sweetener and extract in blender and blend until completely smooth and all lumps are gone (30 seconds). NOTE: DO NOT ADD FROZEN FRUIT UNTIL COTTAGE CHEESE IS BLENDED SMOOTH.
Then add frozen strawberries (or frozen fruit of choice) a few at a time, blending in-between each addition until all are added and shake is smooth.
This is HUGE- large enough to share with 2 people (120 calories each)- but drinking the entire shake myself can serve as a very filling meal.
Try it with frozen blueberries, frozen berries or frozen peaches.
