Happy lunch time my lovely blog readers! I’ve just gotten back from a BUTI workout at yoga blue. Hardest. thing. ever. I left showered in my own sweat. A combo of yoga, plyometrics, African dance, and lots and lots of butti shaking, needless to say, BUTI was great!
Aaaaaand now I’m hungry. The workout left me definitely needing calories, but not wanting something too heavy. Smoothie it was.
Today I made a “b-squared smoothie,” or a blueberry-banana smoothie. To start out with, here’s whatcha need:
- 1 banana (fresh or frozen for more of an icee consistency)
- about 1/2 c blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- about 1 c non-dairy milk (I used almond milk)
- 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder (I used unflavored RAW protein)
- 1 packet stevia
First, I blended the protein powder, stevia, and some of the milk together. I detest when the protein powder doesn’t get blended all the way and I end up having chunks, so I make sure it’s all homogenized first.
Then I added the banana and another splash of milk and blended all that in. Next came the blueberries and the rest of the milk.
Delish. 🙂
how is the raw protein? i’ve seen it at whole foods…
I personally really like the raw protein, and I’m pretty picky about my protein powders. The only thing is making sure to dissolve it in enough liquid; otherwise it stays a little chalky. Also, I’d recommend getting one of the flavored ones over the non-flavored option, if you want a little more taste.
thanks so much. i think i’m going to try it out 🙂
