Lemony Protein Shake

I’ve been making lemony protein shakes for breakfast the last few days.

  • Splash of lemon juice (I buy the big bottles from CostCo)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon Truvia
  • 1 teaspoon lemon essence
  • 1/2 cup greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon xantham gum
  • water to fill the Magic bullet cannister

I give the cannister good shake before blending it on the Magic Bullet

This protein shake is very tasty, but not as thick as I would like, so I will try it again when I get some cottage cheese. I bought the lemon essence from the Homegoods store for $2.99 along with a butter-vanilla essence. I bet that will be delicious. There’s no sugar listed in the ingredients, so I suppose it doesn’t add many -if any-extra calories (no nutritional info on the label). There are some artificial ingredients, so not too terribly clean-eating but what can you do. It’s a nice option from the usual bland protein shakes.
