Ingredients:
- 1 cup frozen riced or chopped cauliflower florets (must be frozen)
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (or 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt)
- 1 tablespoon almond butter or peanut butter (adds healthy fats)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk)
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Optional: A pinch of cinnamon or a teaspoon of chia seeds
Directions:
- Layer your blender: Add the almond milk first, followed by the protein powder, nut butter, and vanilla extract.
- Add the frozen elements: Top with the frozen berries and frozen cauliflower.
- Blend on high: Process for 60 to 90 seconds until completely smooth and creamy. Add a splash more milk if it is too thick.
Why this recipe works:
- Natural Sweetness: The frozen berries and vanilla powder fully overpower the mild taste of the cauliflower.
- Perfect Texture: Frozen cauliflower mimics ice cream when blended, creating a thick milkshake consistency without requiring bananas.
- Balanced Nutrition: This combination provides a perfect mix of clean protein, healthy fats, and slow-digesting fiber to keep you full for hours.
