This plant-based Vanilla Protein Shake is one of my favorite recipes of all time. I love how creamy, sweet and nourishing it is— and it makes a great post workout recovery smoothie or meal replacement.
Ingredients
1 ½
cups
cashew milk
unsweetened
1-3
medjool date
1
tbsp
raw cashews
½
tsp
vanilla extract
1
serving
homemade protein powder
Instructions
Blend all ingredients together in a blender.
Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately. Feel free to add ice to chill it down.
Notes
You can use another plant-based protein powder if your choice, yet taste, sweetness and nutrients will vary.
If this isn't sweet enough, add in 1 additional date. Alternatively swap 2 dates with 1/2 a banana.
Any plant milk can be used as the base, just make sure it is unsweetened.
