Holiday Inspired Nice Cream – Peppermint Protein Smoothie

Hello Loves!

On the Fourth Day of “Blogmas,” I present to you…a Healthy Holiday Treat!

This morning I am off to Lululemon on the Plaza for a workout class and a private shopping event so I wanted to leave you with this crazy good recipe. It’s high in protein, tastes like a white chocolate peppermint Hershey’s Kiss, and takes very few ingredients. 

What You’ll Need:

• 1.5 Large Handfuls of Ice
• Vanilla Almond Milk (I prefer Unsweetened)
• 1/3 of a Frozen Banana
• Ghost White Chocolate and Peppermint Bark Protein Powder (If you don’t have this flavor of protein, use vanilla protein powder and add in a couple drops of peppermint extract.)
• Vanilla Extract

Directions:

1. Combine ice, frozen banana, and 1/4 cup of vanilla almond milk to the blender of your choice.
2. Blend throughly and add in more almond milk if it’s not blending smoothly.
3. Add in 1 heaped scoop of protein power and a half teaspoon of vanilla extract.
4. Blend and top with crushed candy canes!
5. Enjoy your sweet protein treat!
