Berry Smoothie Bowl

Smoothie bowls make the perfect balanced breakfast or refreshing recovery snack/ meal after training. They usually have little liquids making it challenging to get enough protein in a serving. You can always use a sport tested protein powder but for this recipe I used skim milk powder and soy milk to boost protein, giving a total of 16g.

Recipe Tips

• Skim milk power is dried milk powder and you can find it in the baking/ dry ingredient section of the grocery store. It is a great way to add protein to smoothies and recipes. Usually each 1/4 cup packs 8g protein (similar to 1 cup of milk) and will need to be mixed with 1 cup liquid.

• Substitutions: for those using almond milk as their main milk product, you can make this recipe with 1 cup almond milk and 1 scoop sport tested protein powder

• Recipe makes 1-2 servings depending on your needs.

• You can either cut the recipe in half or store the remaining smoothie mix in the freezer to consume the next day, let thaw before eating.
