Hey all! I just made this this morning for the first time. I was after a filling smoothie and I'm hoping it does the trick.
It's by far the tastiest I've made yet. So happy I thought I'd share it with all you fine people.

1 cup coconut water
1 cup water
2 handfuls baby spinach
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 banana
1 tbsp ground flax seed, 1 tbsp chia seeds, 3 tbsp non instant oatmeal soaked in water for less than 5 minutes
1 scoop vanilla protein powder

Blend in a blender and enjoy! What are your favourite filling protein smoothies?

Amanda

    chocolate protein powder (2 scoops)
    120 ml soy milk
    HEAPS OF ICE!
    small banana
    instant coffee-(to taste)
    pinch of cinammon.

    whizz in blender until it is like a frappe. Deelish :)

    Sounds Tasty. I will try that Without including the protein powder :smile:

    What Most people do Not know is that in order to Lose Weight, Protein must be the only thing in your digestive system.

    The human body needs Fat & Carbs to break down Protein.

    If Only Protein is ingested, then the body Uses fat & carbs that are already Stored In the body, to digest the protein.

    So, to Lose weight with protein, I Only have Water in my System 2 hours Before & 2 hours After ingesting the protein and Only mix the protein with Water.

    I use a Protein Powder that is High in protein and Low in Fat & Carbs. Syntha-6 is the Best Tasting & high in protein, my second choice is Gold Standard Whey, then Jay Robb.

    I look forward to trying the recipe at a different meal however.
    Thanks for sharing :smile:
