I was never really a breakfast fan, I know it’s the most important meal of the day and you’re supposed to have it King-size. But I just can’t get myself to enjoy it.
However, as a part of my bulking plan, ( Skinny to Brawny Transformation ) a well balanced, nutrient packed breakfast is a must.
The Solution – Protein Smoothie
So me and my wife came up with a protein smoothie recipe that’s quick, hits all the caloric requirements and tastes ok (Can’t have everything).
The Recipe
Step 1
The Powder
Add all these ingredients in a blender
1.5 scoops (30g) whey protein(unflavored)
1 scoop oatmeal
5 almonds
7 pistachio nuts
3 walnuts
1 tsp chia seeds
Blend till it becomes a fine powder
Step 2
Add these into the blender
200 ml milk
Ice cubes
Any one fruit (mango/banana/chikoo/dates etc)
I hate eating fruits too, so adding a different fruit into this every day makes my life easier, also it’s less boring as the flavour varies daily
Step 3
Blend until you get a thick shake and it’s ready to serve
