  • 1 ripe banana (The natural sugar in bananas provides a quick energy boost and refills your glycogen stores) Added to
  • 1 tablespoon of peanut butter (It's an excellent source of healthy fats and protein) Added to
  • 1 Cup unsweetened almond milk (Almond milk is known to be rich in proteins and low in calories, making it a perfect choice for fitness lovers) Added to

  • A handful of ice cubes Added to

Directions

6 min.
1. Step

In a blender, start by adding your unsweetened almond milk. Pouring liquids first helps to prevent the powder from clumping at the bottom.

2. Step

Add in the scoop of your chosen protein powder. This is the key to muscle recovery and growth, so don't skimp on it!

3. Step

Peel and break your banana into chunks before adding it to the blender. This will ease the blending process.

4. Step

Add the tablespoon of peanut butter. Don't hesitate to adjust the quantity according to your taste and nutritional needs.

5. Step

Sprinkle in the chia seeds. I've found that adding these last keeps them from sinking to the bottom of your blender.

6. Step

Lastly, throw in the ice cubes for a perfectly chilled shake.

7. Step

Now, blend all the ingredients together until you reach a smooth consistency. Add a bit of water if your shake is too thick.

8. Step

Pour this tasty recovery shake into a glass, sit back, and enjoy your well-deserved post-workout treat!
