Pro Tips

  • ✓Using a frozen banana eliminates the need for excessive ice, resulting in a creamier shake.
  • ✓Natural peanut butter (just peanuts and salt) is significantly healthier than brands with added hydrogenated oils.
  • ✓This shake is calorie-dense — perfect for bulking or if you struggle to hit your calorie targets.
  • ✓For a thicker consistency, add 1/4 cup of rolled oats before blending.
