Ingredients
- 3/4 cup pineapple sherbet or sorbet
- 1Â scoop vanilla whey protein powder
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 ice cubes, optional
Preparation
- In a blender, add pineapple sherbet, whey protein powder and water (ice cubes optional).
- Immediately blend for 30 to 45 seconds.
Helpful hints
- Add one or two ice cubes to make smoothie thicker. Add an extra ice cube if you prefer a milkshake consistency or put in the freezer for five minutes before drinking.
- Ask your dietitian about recommended protein powder brands.
- If the protein powder sticks to the side of the blender, turn if off and use a spatula to loosen it from the sides. Replace lid and keep blending until smooth.
