Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller chunks for easier blending.
- Add the banana chunks to your blender.
- Pour in 1 cup of coconut milk.
- Add 2 scoops of whey protein powder.
- Scoop in 1/2 cup of your favorite ice cream. Vanilla works great, but feel free to experiment with other flavors.
- Secure the lid on your blender.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes. If you prefer a thicker shake, you can add a few ice cubes and blend again until they're fully incorporated.
- If the shake is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more coconut milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency. Alternatively, if it's too thin, add a few more ice cubes or a bit more ice cream.
- Once the shake is blended to perfection, pour it into a large glass.
- Enjoy immediately while cold and refreshing.
Tips:
- Use a ripe banana for extra sweetness and a smoother texture.
- Opt for full-fat coconut milk for a richer, creamier shake or light coconut milk for a lower-calorie option.
- Consider adding a handful of spinach or a spoonful of chia seeds for an extra nutrient boost.
- Blend the ingredients together thoroughly to ensure a smooth consistency.
- If you prefer a thicker shake, add more ice cream or a few ice cubes.
- Taste the shake after blending and add a sweetener like honey or agave syrup if needed.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
