Shake It Up! Customization Ideas:
- Flavor Boost: Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder for a chocolate overload, or 1/2 tsp peppermint extract for a mint-chocolate vibe.
- Extra Creamy: Swap 1/4 cup of milk for heavy cream (increases calories and fat).
- Fruity Twist: Add 1/2 cup of berries like strawberries or raspberries (will alter macros and flavor profile slightly).
- Nut Butter Power: A tablespoon of peanut butter or almond butter adds healthy fats and flavor (increases calories).
This shake is designed to be a satisfying treat while hitting your protein goals. Feel free to experiment, but always be mindful of how additions will change the nutritional profile.
