Notes
- Nutritional information is calculated using skim milk. You can use any type of milk, including dairy or plant-based milk. Dairy milk and soy milk will have the most protein.
- The frozen banana will help thicken the shake and make it cold and creamy without having to use ice. If you want your shake thicker, you can add a handful of ice cubes.
- You can throw in a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseed for added protein, fiber and healthy fats.
