Here is one of my collections of over 30 delicious, nutritious, fat-blasting smoothie recipes which can be used for a quick, healthy snack, powerful pre or post workout shake or a breakfast when you’re in a rush.
It really isn’t rocket science, like a lot of the chain smoothie shops try to make it appear, when needing a great tasting and high energy meal.
The majority of products you will need are a multi blend protein powder (like JayLabPro), wheat germ, oatmeal, soy powder, rice powder, flaxseed oil, natural peanut butter, fruit, veggies and a variety of milk products. All of the products required for these shakes can be found at your local health food store.
You will discover how creative you can be with these meals by adding a variety of flavors like tofu, jams, combinations of fruits, veggies, honey, gram crackers, mint and syrups, but this will alter the nutritional value.
You’ll definitely want to invest into a blender and a juicer (anywhere from $40-$100 each) but con-sider this an investment that will actually save you money because you will eat out less and eat less protein bars.
Making these power meals for your friends will become an instant hit and I think you will really enjoy the wide variety of new fat blasting recipes you have for your arsenal.
