Vanilla Almond Protein Smoothie
Hot summer days or post workouts call for delicious protein smoothies! Now I am not one to just have protein powder in milk. I need my food to be delicious or I just don't understand the point. Yes, it is fueling your body, yes you need to take in healthy real food, but for me it also needs to satisfy those taste buds.
Each recipe has been tried and tested by multiple people. Let me tell you, this one is a winner!
NOTE: This serves 2. If you only want 1 serving make sure to half the recipe.

- 1 tsp vanilla
- 5 ice cubes
- 5 drops vanilla stevia - optional
Directions:
- Blend all ingredients except ice in a blender until smooth
