[Blog] Winter Weather Protein Shake Recipes


Baby, it's cold outside…even in California.

But that doesn't mean the healthy habits you've developed over the year get tossed aside, , especially your morning protein shake. I admit, as the weather gets colder and mornings are a bit darker, I'm not craving my usual spinach and frozen pineapple breakfast shake but I do have a few tricks up my sleeve to keep my plant based protein intake up in the colder months.

My first trick is to have my protein shake in the afternoon between 3-5pm when I'm craving a snack, the weather's warmer and the sun's usually shining. My second trick is to shift my recipes to use less frozen fruit and include warming spices - ginger, cinnamon, cayenne. 

But before we get into the recipes (Pumpkin Spice, Black Forest and Winter Farmstand smoothies) let's look at why you should be having a daily protein shake all year round in my latest blog post.
