Start your day with a delicious and nutritious yogurt berry protein shake! Packed with antioxidants from mixed berries, protein from Greek yogurt and whey powder, and essential vitamins, this shake is perfect for a quick breakfast or post-workout snack.

Instructions:
- Ensure that all the berries (blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries) are frozen. This helps in achieving a thick and creamy texture.
- Measure out the Greek yogurt, milk, and whey protein powder as well.
- Place all the frozen berries into your blender. Frozen fruits make the shake cold and frosty without needing to add ice.
- Add the 6 oz of Greek yogurt to the blender. This adds creaminess and extra protein to your shake.
- Pour in 1 cup of milk (1% fat). The milk provides the liquid base necessary for blending all ingredients smoothly.
- Finally, add the scoop of whey protein powder to the mix. This boosts the protein content of the shake.
- Secure the lid on your blender.
- Start blending on a low setting and gradually increase to high. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and no chunks of fruit remain. This usually takes about 1-2 minutes.
- If the shake is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more milk and blend again until the desired consistency is reached.
- Pour the shake into a glass or a travel-friendly blender bottle if you’re on-the-go.
- Optionally, garnish with a few extra berries on top for a visually appealing touch.
- Your delicious and nutritious Yogurt Berry Protein Shake is ready to enjoy immediately.
With just a handful of ingredients, you can prepare a protein-packed and flavorful yogurt berry shake that will keep you energized throughout the day. Not only is it easy to make, but it's also versatile enough to adapt with different fruits or additives according to your taste preference. Enjoy your healthy shake!
Yogurt berry protein shake FAQ:
Blend the ingredients for about 1-2 minutes until completely smooth. Start on a low setting and gradually increase to high to ensure even mixing without lumps.
Yes, you can use fresh berries, but the shake will be less thick and cold. If using fresh berries, consider adding a handful of ice to achieve a frosty texture.
You can substitute whey protein powder with plant-based protein powder, Greek yogurt (for additional thickness), or omit it altogether for a lower protein option.
Store leftover shake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking, as ingredients may separate over time.
To make a dairy-free version, use dairy-free yogurt (like coconut or almond yogurt) and replace milk with almond milk, coconut milk, or any plant-based milk of your choice.
Tips:
- Use a high-powered blender: To achieve a smooth and creamy consistency, make sure to use a high-powered blender. This will help in thoroughly blending the frozen berries and other ingredients.
- Customize sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter shake, consider adding a natural sweetener like honey or a sugar substitute according to your dietary needs.
- Adjusting thickness: To make your shake thicker, add more frozen fruit or a handful of ice cubes. For a thinner consistency, add more milk until you reach the desired texture.
- Experiment with add-ins: Feel free to add a handful of spinach or kale for an extra nutrient boost, or a tablespoon of chia seeds for additional fiber.
- Serve immediately: For the best taste and texture, it's recommended to serve the shake immediately after blending.
