Vanilla Protein Smoothie
Greek yogurt + banana + dates blended into a high-protein vanilla smoothie.
Quick
Adapted from Claude
Ingredients
smoothie
- 0.75 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup water or milk (to thin)
- 1 banana (frozen is better)
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 2 pitted dates
- 5 g creatine
- 1 handful of ice (to taste)
Steps
- If your dates aren’t soft, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes first — or blend the dates with the liquid first before adding everything else. Stops chunks.
- Add all ingredients to the blender.
- Blend until smooth. Add more liquid if too thick, more ice if too thin.
Notes
Estimated 35–45g protein depending on the yogurt and protein powder used.
Lighter almond-milk variant (lets the banana and date flavour come through more):
- 1 to 1¼ cup almond milk
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 scoop vanilla protein
- 2 pitted dates
- 5g creatine
- Ice
- Optional: a spoon of Greek yogurt for body
Weaker blender? Blend the dates + liquid first, then add the rest.
