Method
- Peel the banana and cut it into chunks. For the best results, use a banana that you've frozen ahead of time.
- Place the banana, protein powder, and your choice of optional add-ins into the blender.
- Pour in the liquid and add the ice cubes. Secure the lid and blend on high for 30-60 seconds, or until the shake is completely smooth and creamy. If the shake is too thick, add a little more liquid. If it's too thin, add a few more ice cubes.
- Pour your delicious bariatric protein shake into a glass and enjoy right away for the best taste and texture.
Notes
This bariatric shake recipe is highly customizable. Feel free to add spinach for a green boost or other fruits like strawberries. Always consult your dietitian to ensure the recipe aligns with your specific post-surgery stage and dietary needs. Using a frozen banana will yield the thickest, creamiest result.
