Protein Shake Recipes: Unique and Tasty Recipes For Protein Shakes

Delicious Protein Shake Recipes That Are Easy To Make

By Hugo Rivera


Changing things up a bit or adding variety is always a good thing for those following a diet. So here are 3 unique protein shake recipes that will get those taste buds sizzling and help you lose weight at the same time.

1. Oatmeal Mixed With Protein Powder
This is probably my favorite of all the recipes I have used. I like to get a cup of oatmeal (measured uncooked and you can consume it either cooked or on its natural state), sprinkle some protein powder on top of it and then mix it with a little bit of water. I use just enough water to make it taste like pudding.

Make sure that you only use old fashioned plain unsweetened oatmeal as there are many types of oatmeal that come loaded with sugars. I usually get a cup of plain oatmeal and pour it into a bowl. From there I use a protein powder such as Pro V60 Plus as it not only contains the right amount of proteins, carbs and fats, but it is also high in dietary fiber.

The great part of using this protein is that you get a variety of flavors to choose from. I personally like the chocolate or vanilla, but the strawberry is a great alternative for those strawberry lovers!

2. Protein Powder Mixed With Fish Oils: Lemon Pudding

Another great way to make a protein shake taste like a pudding is to mix protein powder with some liquid fish oils. What I do is simply put the amount of protein I will consume which is around 40 grams in a bowl. My choice of protein is once again Pro V 60 and for this mix, I usually use the vanilla flavor.

Then I put a tablespoon of Carlson’s Fish Oil (Lemon Flavor) in with the protein. My last step is to add about 2 ounces of water to give it that pudding taste. Afterwards, I take a spoon and mix it until it looks like pudding.

3. Almond Pudding

Almond pudding is another way to make a regular protein shake taste phenomenal. What I like to do is get a bowl and put my protein in first. I then mix it with about 2 ounces of water until it appears to be pudding. I then sprinkle a tablespoon of almonds to give it a unique taste and get some good fats in.

All of these recipes will add variety to your diet and help make your fat extinct once and for all!
