Post-workout Raw Cacao Recovery Shake Recipe

If you’re looking to put on lean muscle mass and maximize your efforts in the gym, you must feed your muscles properly with your post recovery shake. A good post-workout recovery shake will include complex carbohydrates to replenish glycogen stores, electrolytes, healthy fats and a high quality protein source to promote the growth and maintenance of lean muscle mass. Here’s a delicious and satiating post-workout recovery shake recipe that your body will appreciate after a long training session.

    Ingredients:
    • 1 scoop Brad King's Alpha Chocolate Whey Protein
    • 1 cup unsweetened nut milk
    • 1 tbsp Nut's To You natural peanut butter (no sugar added)
    • handful ice cubes
    • 1 tsp Organic Traditions Cacao Powder
    • 1 tbsp Manitoba Harvest hemp hearts
    • 1 handful spinach
    Optional: handful of Nutiva's Naturals Raw Cacao Nibs 

    Method:

    • Place all ingredients in your blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
    • Drink immediately.
    • If your shake turns out too thick, add filtered water to reach desired consistency.
    • Enjoy!
