Healthy Protein Blended Chocolate Coffee Frappucino (Also delicious without the Coffee!)


Hi Everyone!

There will be a new workout posted tonight. In the mean time I wanted to share my healthy "Frappucino" recipe. 

This drink is delicious, easy to make in the morning (or anytime!), and keeps me full. It's also helped me satisfy my sweet tooth during my 1 Month No Sweets Challenge (day 27! Woohoo!)

Feel free to experiment with your own additions, or substitute your favorite milk product. 

Ingredients:
-1 tall glass of coffee poured over ice (alternatively you can freeze an ice cube tray full of coffee, and use the frozen cubes)
-1 cup vanilla coconut milk (almond milk, soy milk, etc-look for unsweetened)
-1 Scoop Chocolate Protein Powder (I use Nutracore Lean Active 7-Chocolate Cake from Total Nutrition Mansfield)
-1/2 Banana (I usually pre-freeze my banana, but it's good fresh too)
-Ice

Combine all of the ingredients in the blender and enjoy! Maybe it's because I haven't been eating sweets for 4 weeks, but it tastes like a milkshake if you leave out the coffee, and a delicious frozen coffee milkshake with the coffee. :)

Enjoy!
Melissa
