This creamy chocolate protein smoothie is the perfect blend of delicious flavor and nutritional power. It's designed to fuel your body with protein and satisfy your chocolate cravings. Whether you need a quick breakfast, a post-workout recovery drink, or a healthy snack, this smoothie hits the mark.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup almond milk
60g
1/2 cup lowfat cottage cheese
110g
2 tbsp dry cocoa powder
10g
1/2 scoop whey protein powder
16g
1 tsp stevia leaf sweetener
3g
1 cup water
240g

Instructions:

1. Gather All Ingredients: Ensure you have all the listed ingredients measured and ready to go.
2. Combine Liquid Ingredients:
- Pour 1/4 cup of almond milk and 1 cup of water into a blender.
3. Add Cottage Cheese:
- Scoop 1/2 cup of low-fat cottage cheese and add it to the blender. This ingredient helps create a creamy texture while adding protein.
4. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
- Add 2 tablespoons of dry cocoa powder.
- Follow with 1/2 scoop of whey protein powder.
- Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of stevia leaf sweetener for a touch of sweetness.
5. Blend the Mixture:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend the mixture on high speed for about 30-60 seconds or until the smoothie is completely smooth and creamy. If needed, pulse intermittently to help blend any stubborn ingredients.
6. Check Consistency:
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a small amount of additional water or almond milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
7. Serve and Enjoy:
- Pour the smoothie into a glass.
- Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a dash of cinnamon for an extra touch.
8. Clean Up:
- Rinse the blender immediately to make cleaning easier later on.

Tips:

- For a thicker smoothie, add a few ice cubes or freeze the almond milk beforehand.

- You can enhance the creaminess by adding half a banana or a few slices of avocado.

- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less stevia according to your taste preferences.

- Blend the smoothie until it's completely smooth to ensure a silky texture.

- For added fiber, throw in a tablespoon of chia seeds or ground flaxseeds.

Enjoy your creamy chocolate protein smoothie as a nutritious and delicious way to stay energized throughout the day. This smoothie is versatile and can be customized to meet your dietary needs and taste preferences. Happy blending!
