Good Eating Austin

Recently, I've had quite a few of you ask for my Breakfast Shake recipe. I thought it would be simpler if I posted it on here for everyone to see!!




Good Eating Breakfast Shake



1 Cup Soy or Fat Free Milk

1/4 Cup Rolled Oats, Quaker or any other whole oat

1 T Almond or Natural Peanut Butter

1 Scoop Whey Protein Powder

1 T Cocoa Powder (leave out if using a flavored protein powder)

3 Each Strawberries or (best if frozen first)

1 T Flax Seeds, freshly ground should yield 1 tsp

Ice



Add oats and flax seeds to blender. Pulse to grind.

Add ice, almond butter, protein powder, cocoa if using, strawberries and milk.


You'll need to experiment with your blender to see how much ice you'd like. More makes a bigger shake, less a smaller shake. Also, I found that with my blender (which is starting to die!) it works best if I put all the ingredients in and begin to blend, then add the milk. That may not be necessary with yours, cause it can get messy if you're not careful.



You can substitute out the cow milk for soy or almond, whey protein for soy (flavored or plain) and what ever fruit you'd like. Just make sure that you are not using more than a 1/4 cup serving of fruit.
