Strawberry almond protein power smoothie FAQ:

What can I use instead of whey protein powder?

You can substitute whey protein powder with plant-based protein powders like pea or hemp protein. Make sure to check the serving size as it may vary.

How can I store leftover smoothie?

If you have leftover smoothie, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake or stir well before drinking, as separation may occur.

What if my smoothie is too thick?

If your smoothie is too thick, simply add a bit more water to the blender and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.

How many servings does this recipe make?

This recipe makes approximately two servings, depending on the size of your glasses.

Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh?

Yes, you can use frozen strawberries. They can make the smoothie colder and creamier. You may need to adjust the amount of water to achieve your preferred consistency.

Tips:

- Use fresh or frozen strawberries based on your preference and availability. Frozen strawberries can make the smoothie thicker and colder.

- Adjust the consistency by adding more or less water depending on how thick you like your smoothie.

- For an extra nutritional boost, consider adding a handful of spinach or kale. The mild flavor will blend well with the strawberries and almond butter.

- If you prefer a bit of sweetness, add a teaspoon of honey or a pitted date. Alternatively, use flavored whey protein powder to enhance the taste.

- Blend the ingredients in stages, starting with the water and strawberries, before adding the almond butter and whey protein for a smoother consistency.
