PLANT-BASED Meal Replacement & Post-Workout Smoothie!

If you love the taste of sweet, juicy dark cherries – you will love this Plant-Based, Post-Workout Protein Smoothie! Cherries are high in anti-oxidants, vitamins and anti-inflammatory compounds plus, they’re just freaking delicious. I’ve been having this Smoothie right after my workout, as a Meal-Replacement.

What you feed your body after a workout is key. During a workout, minuscule micro-tears occur in our muscles. Eating clean protein after a workout helps to repair those small tears, and prevents the loss of lean mass. Lean mass contributes to a more defined and toned appearance!

Notes

Prefer it as a Snack?
I call this a Meal Replacement because it has approximately 450-500 calories. That is more calories than a Snack for women should have, which should generally be in the 100-200-calorie range.
If you prefer this as a snack – no problem! Either split it with your main (I give half to Oliver) OR simply cut the recipe in half! Either way, this is a satisfying, delicious, NO added-sugar, protein & vitamin rich way to help muscles recover after a workout, OR just to help you stay your svelte and gorgeous self ;-).
