Notes
- Protein Powder: Use a small scoop of protein powder (anywhere between 20g to 35g). Chocolate, vanilla, or peanut butter flavoured protein powder works best. You can also use unflavoured protein powder; I recommend adding a drizzle of maple syrup to make up for the sweetness.
- Optional Add-In’s: A few ideas for additional toppings and mix-in’s for your protein shake include…
- Banana: Blend in one ripe banana to make the smoothie thicker and sweeter.
- Avocado: Half an avocado adds richness and makes it more filling.
- Flaxseed: Adds a bit of texture. But be careful, don’t leave the flaxseeds in for too long before drinking, because they’ll turn slimy.
- Coconut: Mix in a spoonful of toasted coconut flakes or shredded coconut. The nutty toasty flavour pairs great with matcha!
- Spinach or Zucchini: A small handful of baby spinach or chopped zucchini bulks up the nutrients, and doesn’t noticeably impact taste.
