Strawberry & Banana Protein Work-Out Shake

Smoothies and shakes can be a super tasty way of getting the right balance of carbs to protein either before and after a work-out.

I’ve been using a delicious 100% natural & vegan protein from Sativa, which is a blend of pea, soy, hemp and brown rice protein.

Notes

*I use Sativa strawberry & banana High Pro but you could also use Maxitone’s banana protein powder as used in my banana protein bar recipe or MyProtein’s Vanilla Whey Protein Powder.

**Peel & halve the banana before freezing over-night.

***To make oat flour simply blend some oats in your blender or you can use Ultra Fine Scottish Oats (Ground Oats).
