Protein milkshake

Am I the only one that could sit and eat ice-cream every night before bed?! I don't think so. Here is a way that you CAN and without the fatty sugar filled ice-cream!!

1 frozen banana
3-4 ice cubes
1 scoop chocolate protein (i use muscle pharm combat - chocolate milk)
2 tbsp peanut butter (or if you're watching your weight try PB2)
1/4 cup - 1/2 cup milk (you can also use almond milk - more or less depending on how thick you like it:)



Peel and freeze a ripe banana. Place all ingredients in your blender and blend until smooth! You can do this without the protein in you prefer. Maybe add drizzle of chocolate syrup instead. If you need extra carbs in your diet try adding quick oats!! I like to drink a protein shake before bed that way my muscles are being fed. Musclepharm's Combat protein not only has whey isolate but also casein which is awesome to take at night before bed because it's slower digesting and helps prevent muscle breakdown while you're asleep. Try it!
