Bluberry Blaster Mystery Shake

Here's a shake I've been making for past little while that is surprisingly yummy even though the mystery ingredient may seem ... odd.

Chuck the following in a blender:

1 scoop vanilla protein powder*
3/4 cup organic or local blueberries
1 Tbsp raw or roasted almond butter
A handful of ice
A big fistful or organic baby spinach leaves (really!)

Cover the lot with some cold water , blend until homogeneous. Drink immediately or store in an airtight drink container in the fridge and have the rest later.
Note that when you have it right away it look purple because of the berries, but if left in the fridge for a while that incognito spinach shows it's true colours and the shake will look green, and somewhat unappetizing...

Drink Up!


* Chose a protein powder that has the least amount of crap in it, or if you prefer you can use pasteurized organic egg whites.
