I enjoy EnergyFirst® ProEnergy protein, but you can substitute your favorite vanilla flavored protein for the recipe.   There are some basic instructions, which can be modified depending on your favorite brand.  Try it, it’s awesome!

Making your Favorite Protein Shake:

Step 1:            Add the following ingredients into a blender:

Liquid:    1-1/2 cups of cold water, non-fat milk, plain soy milk or plain almond milk.

  • Protein:  2-3 scoops of EnergyFirst ProEnergy Protein Powder
  • Good Fat:  1 tablespoon EnergyFirst OmegaEnergy Oil Blend or 1 tablespoon EnergyFirst OmegaEnergy Mix Blend (ground seed)
  • Good Carbohydrate:  ½ to 1 cup fresh or frozen (unsweetened) fruit or ¼ cup of raw old-fashioned oatmeal
  • Greens:  1 scoop of EnergyFirst Greenergy for an extra energy and an immune system boost

 Optional:

 Add ice for a thicker, creamier shake

  • Add natural essences like vanilla, mint or almond essence and spices like cinnamon, all spice, nutmeg or ginger

 Step 2:            Blend to desired smoothness and enjoy.

 This recipe makes a 32-ounce shake.  Drink the full shake for a complete meal.  Drink half for a smaller meal.
