4. Add Protein:
- Finally, add the scoop of whey protein powder to the blender.
5. Blend:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend on high speed until all the ingredients are well-mixed and the smoothie has a smooth consistency. This usually takes about 1-2 minutes.
6. Check Consistency:

Tips:

- For a thicker consistency, add a few ice cubes or a frozen banana before blending.

- Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding a small amount of honey or your preferred sweetener if needed.

- If you prefer a dairy-free option, opt for a plant-based protein powder instead of whey.

- To enhance the nutritional value, consider adding a handful of spinach or a tablespoon of chia seeds.

- Blend on high to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly mixed for a smooth and creamy texture.
