Mango-Hemp Recovery Shake
It's a blend crafted for optimal post-exercise nourishment.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
Salvare Hemp Protein Powder: 2 scoops (40g)
Milk (Regular or Plant-based): 12 oz
Ripe Banana: 1
Fresh or Frozen Mango Chunks: 1 cup.
Optional: A handful of ice cubes (especially if you're not using frozen mango).
Optional: A sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor.
Instructions
Prepare Ingredients: Ensure that the banana and mango are ripe and cleaned. Peel the banana and slice it into chunks. If using fresh mango, peel and cut it into chunks.
Blend: In a blender, add the 12 oz of milk, followed by the hemp protein powder. Blend for a short while to mix the powder well with the milk.
Add Fruits: Add the banana and mango chunks to the blender. If you're adding ice, add it too.
Blend Again: Blend on high until the shake is smooth and creamy. Ensure that all the fruit pieces are well-pureed, and the shake has a consistent texture.
Flavoring (Optional): If you want a touch of extra flavor, sprinkle a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg and give it one last blend to mix thoroughly.
Serve: Pour the shake into a glass or bottle. Enjoy immediately for the best taste and consistency.
Add Some Greens: For an added nutrient boost, consider adding a handful of spinach or kale to your shake. These greens blend well and won't dramatically alter the taste but will significantly increase the fiber and micronutrient content.
Low Sugar Version: If you are watching your sugar intake, consider using half a banana instead of a whole one and using unsweetened almond milk or water instead of regular milk. This will significantly reduce the sugar content while still giving you a tasty recovery shake.
