I am a sucker for a tasty strawberry shake...
The sweet taste of strawberries, cream, and milk all mixed together ... yum!
I only wish I could find a strawberry shake that was high protein, low calorie, and not full of a ton of sugar.
That's when I figured ... you know what ... I may as well make my own! While it took me a while to really hone in on the perfect flavor and consistency, I think I've finally found a delicious recipe.
This strawberry shake recipe is only 341 calories, 36 grams of protein, and just as good as a strawberry milkshake!
Give it a try, and I can't wait to hear what you think...

Optional Toppings:
Looking for a little more flavor or calories? One of my favorite things to do with this protein shake is add different toppings to find my favorite variation!
Strawberry works great with a lot of things. If you add any of these toppings, just be aware of how it affects the calories and macros of the shake. With that being said, here are some of the best toppings:
- Coconut Shavings
- Sliced Mango
- Oats
- Whipped Cream
- Chocolate Chips
- Low Sugar Chocolate Syrup
Mix It Up With Fruit Variations
Now, let's talk about the art of customization. Smoothies are your canvas, and the possibilities are endless.
Keep that banana for the velvety texture, but you can swap out strawberries for a variety of fruit. Raspberries, mango, blueberries – the choices are endless. Feel the freedom to experiment, discover your signature blend, and turn your protein shake into a personalized, mouth-watering experience.
Because who says health can't be a tasty celebration? Embrace the mix, and savor the goodness with every sip!
Who is This Shake Good For?
If you have any fitness goals, this is a great shake for you! The reason I say this is because it's easy to customize and fit in just about any nutrition plan. Want to build muscle and gain weight? No problem! Just add some more calories with toppings or even throw some peanut butter in the shake!
Let's say you don't want to gain weight, and you're looking to burn body fat. Well, this strawberry protein shake only has 341 calories! On top of that, it has an impressive 36 grams of protein.
Is This Strawberry Protein Shake Vegan Friendly?
Unfortunately, this strawberry protein shake is NOT vegan friendly. The good news is, it can be! If you take out the greek yogurt and replace the Level-1 with a plant-based protein like Vegan Power Pro, you'll make the shake vegan-friendly!
Is Protein Powder Good For Weight Loss?
Ever wondered if protein powder could be your secret weapon for shedding those extra pounds?
Well, the answer lies in understanding how protein plays a crucial role in weight loss. The Strawberry Protein Shake recipe I'm sharing is not just a delicious treat but a smart choice for anyone aiming to lose weight.
Packed with a whopping 36 grams of protein and clocking in at only 341 calories, it's a tasty way to keep you full and support your weight loss goals. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast or just starting your journey, protein powder can be your handy sidekick.
