If there’s one thing I love, it’s a good Smoothie Recipe! I have shared many of my favourite smoothie recipes here and today’s recipe was made in response to a request from my friend Winny who adores creamsicles.
Today I’m sharing a delicious Creamsicle Smoothie recipe which includes cottage cheese. Cottage cheese boosts up your protein levels, while keeping the carbs and fats low. Cottage cheese has a high content of casein protein (a longer-lasting protein) which keeps you feeling fuller longer. So not only is this DELICIOUS, it’s quite good for you.
Orange Creamsicle Smoothie
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (I used vanilla flavour)
- 1/3 cup cottage cheese
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- Zest of 1 orange
- 1 orange, peeled, pitted and sliced
- Truvia or stevia to taste
- 2 cups of ice
PREPARATION
- Place all of the ingredients into your blender and blend on medium speed until smooth.
- Pour into a glass and enjoy!
