Looking to get a little bit of extra protein into your diet? Well look no further then here, because protein smoothie recipes are some of the easiest and most effective ways to get this vital nutrient into your diet conveniantly and naturally. There are a few different ways you can go about incorporating more protein into your smoothies, and one of the my personal preferences is to use a non fat greek yogurt which is known to have double the protein of traditional eropean style yogurt varieties that most people are familiar with.
Now you can also use a supplement either in addition to the greek yogurt or as a replacement for dairy, but also remember you can use non dairy alternatives for yogurt too! You can use vegan friendly protein powders that are made organic and are sourced from rice and sprouts and are just as effective if not more so then whey based powders which are not really needed and are best avoided for optimum health. So here is a simple but poretin packe smoothie recipe for you to try out!
