Whey Better!
Why have a conventional Orange Julius Shake, which has 106 grams of sugar and only 1 g of protein, when you could have my knock-off version? My version is the same quantity; however, it has 59% less calories, 98% less sugar and 94% more protein!
Recipe:
Place the following into a Magic Bullet or Blender:
- 2/3 scoop of BSN Syntha-6 Orange Smoothie Whey
- 1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk. I recommend SILK brand because it's less calories.
- 1/2 cup of crushed ice
- 2 TBSP Walden Farms Marshmallow Dip (Calorie and Sugar free). It makes the shake "frothier". You can omit this step if you prefer. Other thickening options would be 2 TBSP of non fat Greek Yogurt, Xantham Gum or Glucomannan.
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Blend and Serve! Tastes exactly like Orange Julius!
