Notes
Protein: Or any protein powder of choice.
Milk choice: I used unsweetened almond milk, but cow's milk adds an extra 6-7 grams of protein, or a protein-enriched milk like Fairlife adds 10-11 grams.
If you want to make the strawberry protein milkshake or chocolate protein milkshake as pictured, make the following swaps-
Chocolate protein milkshake: Use chocolate protein powder and add one teaspoon of cocoa powder.
Strawberry protein milkshake: Add one cup of fresh or frozen strawberries.
