Protein Shake
Thursday, August 09, 2012
Please tell me you've heard of this. PB2. I learned about it a few weeks ago from my hairdresser who is into all things healthy. It is basically peanut butter without all of the fat! I got mine at amazon.com. I use it for my protein shakes that I have each evening. This is how I make mine.
I gather my ingredients. Whey protein powder, PB2, Almond Breeze (I like vanilla flavored), a banana and a handful of clean strawberries.
This whey protein is my favorite. I like the chocolate and Vanilla Ice Cream flavored. I get mine at bodybuilding.com.
I use a generous scoop of protein powder. And add it to my trusty Blendtec.
Then I get my PB2 (it comes in chocolate too!)
I scoop out a generous tablespoon...and add it to my blender.
I'm making 3 cups, so I add 24 ounces of almond milk. Any brand will do. Add a banana and strawberries (don't take off the stems). And a handful of ice cubes; blend well.
Seriously, so good. And so healthy.
FYI. Cut up apples and sprinkle PB2 on them for a tasty afternoon snack. You're welcome.

Yum! I will have to try this. I love smoothies - and peanut butter, too! I had never heard of PB2, but it looks like a great option.
Tootie, you will love PB2 if you are a smoothie girl!
