Mix Up Your Smoothies

Smoothies are a great way to get calories before or after a workout, or even for a quick snack. You can make them pack an extra punch when you add a scoop of protein! It's easy to fall into the same smoothie-making routine, but we are here to help you add a little variety. We wanted to share our three favorite smoothie recipes with you, and our favorite proteins to add to them. You can find all of these proteins on our Protein page, so add one or all of them to your next box and test them out!
