Intense Workout High Protein Smoothie
This intense workout high protein smoothie is perfect for those of you who are working out or just want to increase your daily protein intake.
I started working out, so I began looking for high-quality vegan protein sources to add to my diet. I discovered that there are so many amazing superfoods you can add to your smoothies and make them high in proteins and just perfect for intense workouts.
Hemp seeds are my absolute favorite! Also, nut butters, and chia seeds are pretty good too. Costin also adds spirulina in almost every smoothie he drinks. Yes, I know spirulina is an amazing source of proteins, but I just can’t stand its taste or smell! I only tolerate it in low quantities, 1 tsp or so per smoothie, not 1 whole tablespoon as Costin wants! 😛
So, no green spirulina smoothies for me. I had to find a high protein smoothie recipe which would also taste good. Here it is!
Bananas, hemp seeds, hazelnut butter, dates, cinnamon and rice protein powder = LOVE! This combo is just perfect. It tastes amazing and it’s good for your body too.
Give it a try and let me now if you liked it as much as I did! 😀

Thisbis so good, just what I needed after a day of cycling and dancing, thank you!
You’re welcome, Nathan! 😀
Kind of confused by ‘one glass’ soy milk. How big of a glass? Why not just list the measurement in cups?
250ml – about one cup.
Thanks for the recipe – did it with peanut butter and veggie protein powder and it was delicious! I do count calories so I have to figure it out especially the protein content.
Peanut butter is great in banana smoothies! 🙂 You can use cronometer.com for calories and protein intake. That’s what I use.
This sounds like a great recipie. What is the grams/count for Carbs, Sugars, Protein, overall calories count?
Thank you!
Thanks, Chana! 🙂 Have no idea! I don’t count calories at all. You can use cronometer.com if you want.
