So many people ask me, “What is a quick to go meal to stave off my hunger and possible binge eating?” Using a good quality protein powder(I use protein powder from Healthy Performance) and a few ingredients can create a powerful nutrient rich and protein packed smoothy to keep you satisfied and healthy. I always fall back on this recipe when I’m either in a hurry or don’t know what to eat!
Protein Smoothie
- 1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries. I use whatever is in my fridge. When my fruit starts to go bad, I put it in ziplok baggies and freeze it! I never waste my fruit. If your bananas start to go bad, peel them, cut them in half and freeze!
- 1 cup unflavored rice milk, or almond milk/skim milk
- 2 TBSP flaxseed
- 1 scoop protein powder
Blend all ingredients and drink!
You can go and buy the mini blender from Target that is about $12-15 and has a cup already attached. It’s quiet and you can take it to work or stash in your bag when you travel! You will never be without a quick meal again!
