I pretty much add it to every protein shake.  You cannot even taste it I promise!!!

However, if it freaks you out…you can omit it!

Add xanthan gum (it helps to make it creamy and smooth!) and mix well.

Enjoy!

So so so yummy! 

This shake is GIANT and it’s about 300 calories.  I would count it as a meal or if you half the recipe, it becomes the perfect pre/post workout snack or just a great snack anytime!  It is very filling as well!
