Why is protein essential in your diet?
“Your body needs protein to stay healthy and work the way it should. More than 10,000 types are found in everything from your organs to your muscles and tissues to your bones, skin and hair.
Protein is also a critical part of the processes that fuel your energy and carry oxygen throughout your body in your blood. It also helps make antibodies that fight off infections and illnesses and helps keep cells healthy and create new ones.” Webmd.com
Is rice or almond milk better in this cafe latte protein smoothie?
Both rice and almond milk provide added nutritional benefits. Rice milk has a few more calories but it provides healthy amounts of Vitamins A, B12 & D. Almond milk is a good source of magnesium and is low in calories. Either one will combine with the protein powder and coffee to create this delicious smoothie.
Ingredients:
1 cup rice milk (or almond milk)
1 scoop G4Y Chocolate Protein Powder
3 Coffee Ice Cubes
Combine the first 2 ingredients using a shaker cup. Add the coffee ice cubes, shake and then pour into large glass. Garnish with cocoa powder. Enjoy this refreshing nutritious protein smoothie for breakfast or a snack!
Helpful tip: make up several trays of coffee ice cubes and then store them in a sealed container or ziplock bag for a fast and easy treat whenever you want a cafe latte protein smoothie.
