Cook Time:
I didn't want to buy protein powder to increase the level of protein in my diet so I invented this high protein shake. Carnation instant breakfast adds another protein boost but is not necessary and is pretty high in sugars.
Ingredients:
½ cup
cottage cheese
1 cup
skim milk
1 tablespoon
agave syrup
(to taste)
½-1 cup
fruit
, of your choice
½ package
carnation
instant breakfast drink mix
(optional)
Directions:
1
Put everything in the blender and puree.
2
Drink.
Ratings & Reviews:
This makes for GREAT TASTING SHAKES, for sure! I've made them a lot of ways, but don't think I'd ever used cottage cheese before! Followed the recipe (doubling it for 2 of us) but left out the optional breakfast drink mix, & I did use frozen strawberries for the frost factor! Thanks for the nice treat!
