Instructions:
- Rinse the spinach leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
- Hull the strawberries by removing their stems and any white inner parts.
- Peel the banana and cut it into smaller chunks to make blending easier.
- Into your blender, add the 1 cup of spinach first. The denser ingredients at the bottom help with blending efficiency.
- Pour in the 1/4 cup of orange juice and 1/4 cup of coconut milk to add some moisture and help the blending process.
- Add the hulled strawberries and the banana chunks to the blender.
- Carefully measure 3/4 cup of egg whites and pour them into the blender. (Note: Using pasteurized egg whites is recommended for safety.)
- Securely place the lid on the blender. Start blending on a low setting and gradually increase to high speed.
- Blend until all the ingredients are fully combined and the shake reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. This should take about 1-2 minutes, depending on your blender's power.
- Stop the blender and check the shake’s consistency. If it’s too thick, you can add a little more coconut milk or orange juice.
- Taste the shake. If you prefer it sweeter, consider blending in a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup (optional).
- Pour the fruity egg white protein shake into a tall glass.
- Enjoy your nutritious and delicious protein-rich shake immediately for the best taste and texture.
Tips:
- For a thicker shake, try using frozen strawberries or banana.
- Add a spoonful of chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Customize the sweetness by adjusting the amount of orange juice or adding a bit of honey or maple syrup.
- Ensure your egg whites are pasteurized to eliminate any risk of salmonella.
- Blend the spinach first with a little bit of the liquid to ensure it's fully broken down and incorporated.
- Feel free to substitute almond milk or another plant-based milk if you're not a fan of coconut milk.
