Blueberry Protein Shake

If sipping more refreshing drinks like this blueberry muffin protein shake is your future, try blending up our healthy chocolate cherry protein shake, copycat snickers smoothie, or detox island green smoothie next time.

I will guide you through how to make this vibrant purple 5-ingredient smoothie taste like a blueberry muffin in a glass. The result is a smooth and luscious drink that will make your taste buds sing and keep you feeling full and energized. Try our Bahama mama smoothie for another 5 ingredient smoothie!

• Almond milk (or milk of choice) - We prefer the flavor of nutty unsweetened almond milk in this shake, but feel free to use your favorite milk.
• Frozen blueberries - This small but mighty berry is known as a "superfood" because it's loaded with nutrients. The health benefits of this berry may include improved memory, lower blood pressure, and muscle recovery.
• Vanilla protein powder - Getting enough protein in your diet is essential to overall health. High protein smoothies like this one can be considered meal replacement shakes. This vanilla protein powder smoothie tastes scrumptious with our favorite protein.
• Chia seeds - You will always find chia seeds in our shakes and smoothies because of their healthy fats and high fiber content.
• Brazil nuts - This nut tastes mild and bitter-sweet. It gives our blueberry protein shake it's freshly baked blueberry muffin flavor! Brazil nuts can reduce inflammation, support brain health, and improve heart and thyroid functions.

Adding a scoop of this vanilla protein powder is the best way to add protein while not altering the flavor of this shake.

We love smoothies with vanilla protein powder, however, if you are looking for a substitution for protein powder, here are a few good options:

• Greek yogurt
• cottage cheese
• nut butters (peanut butter or almond butter)
• flaxseeds
• hemp seeds
• a store-bought ready to drink shake - omit the almond milk and protein powder if using this option.

From start to finish, make this easy protein shake with blueberries in 5 minutes or less.

Step 1: Add all ingredients to a blender cup. (Exact measurements can be found in the recipe card)

Step 2: Place blender cup in blender base.

Step 3: Blend for 30 seconds to 1 minute to ensure the nuts and seeds get pulverized completely.
