Protein Coffee image

I liked this drink after I made the changes I made listed below. This is a easy way to get your protein. I posted it for safe keeping. When I made this recipe I made changes to it because to me it was like drinking watered down coffee/cocoa. I used about 3 tbl maxwell house coffee. I also ran out of milk so I made up some with powdered milk. I used 2 scoops of protein powder. I used a whole packet of cocoa. I used almond sugar free syrup. I got this recipe from Obesity Help.

Time 15m

Yield 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups water
2 teaspoons instant coffee crystals (2 scoops)
1 cup milk
1 -2 tablespoon vanilla protein powder (1-2 scoops)
1 tablespoon sugar-free hot cocoa mix (1 scoop)
sugar-free syrup (try hazelnut or irish cream)

Steps:

  • In a big plastic cup, mix water and coffee and microwave for two minutes.
  • In a blender, blend Milk & Protein on low until well mixed (no lumps).
  • Add the chocolate (cocoa) and syrup to the coffee mix and stir well.
  • Add the protein mix to the coffee while stirring.
  • Put it in your 'to go' mug and hit the road.
  • Note: It sounds like a ton of trouble, but If you have everything ready to go and it takes only minutes to do the whole thing. Faster than a McDonalds drive thru and LOTS more protein! Don't forget to rinse out the blender immediately or the protein powders becomes like cement (recipe from Kristine).
