A creamy, chocolatey protein shake bursting with strawberry goodness, perfect for a quick energy boost or a healthy treat anytime.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (150g) frozen strawberries
  • 1 scoop (~30g) chocolate protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ cup (120g) plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon (5-7g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon (7g) honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon (5g) chia seeds (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients.
  2. Add 1 cup almond milk and ½ cup Greek yogurt into the blender. Blend for 10 seconds.
  3. Add 1 cup frozen strawberries (or fresh with ice cubes). Blend on high for 20-30 seconds until mostly smooth.
  4. Add 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (if using), 1 teaspoon chia seeds, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Blend for 20-30 seconds, scraping down sides if needed.
  5. Check consistency; add almond milk to thin or frozen strawberries/yogurt to thicken as needed.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness or add a pinch of salt if desired.
  7. Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a fresh strawberry or cocoa powder.

Notes

Use frozen strawberries for a creamy, cold texture. Blend liquids first to avoid clumps. Adjust sweetness carefully to balance flavors. For vegan or dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and use plant-based protein powder. Prepare ahead by blending all except frozen strawberries and add them just before drinking.
