Protein Packed Smoothie Recipe
Since early January, I’ve started focusing more on fitness and nutrition. I run three miles a day, five days a week. That’s been going well, but lately I’ve started to plateau and learned that I need to increase my protein intake. While I do try to eat protein rich foods, I also have found that a shake or smoothie each day helps me easily get more protein. Recently I turned to Momentous because they offer clean and safe supplements!
The team at Momentous believes that high quality supplements are for more than just professional athletes. Plus, they completely stand behind their products and even share their ingredients. I decided to try two different types of their protein and I’ve been so impressed with them!
Momentous Endurance Recovery RedShift Grass Fed Whey Protein
I can be pretty picky when it comes to the flavors and textures of protein, and this Veracruz Vanilla Grass Fed Whey Protein is truly delicious. The texture is smooth and I love mixing it straight with water or organic milk. The RedShift formula provides the additional electrolytes and carbohydrates necessary to optimize recovery after a cardio workout, so I usually use this protein right after I run. In addition, this protein has a full four grams of D-Ribose supports good cardiovascular health. It’s GMO-free, gluten free, and NSF Certified. I use a Momentous Blender Bottle to mix my shakes!
Momentous AbsoluteZero 100% Plant Protein
For an everyday protein, I’ve turned to Momentous AbsoluteZero 100% Plant Protein. The Piedmont Chocolate flavor is vegan, Non-GMO, gluten free, and tasty! AbsoluteZero 100% Plant is the highest quality plant protein source available, combining the perfect ratios of pea protein isolate with rice protein concentrate. While I like it mixed with water or milk, I LOVE to make a protein smoothie for breakfast with this protein.
While this smoothie is high in protein, it’s also just packed with nutrients in general. Check out the full recipe below!
- 1 scoop Piedmont Chocolate Momentous AbsoluteZero 100% Plant Protein
- 1 ripe banana
- 2 Tbsp peanut butter
- ½ an avocado
- 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed
- 1 cup ice
- Mix all ingredients in blender until fully mixed
- Enjoy!
This protein smoothie is a great way to start the day! I love using Momentous AbsoluteZero Protein daily, and RedShift Grass Fed Whey after my workouts. I look forward to seeing more results as I use these products over the next month!

I have been really conscience about how important a decent intake of protein really is. It is tough to find protein shakes that taste good at times. This sounds good. I think the grass fed whey would be an excellent choice. That sounds like it would taste great and go down easy.

It sounds great. My son is running. I will tell him about it to see if it is something he wants to put in his exercise routine.

I am not familiar with Momentous Protein. However, as I like to consume higher amounts of protein, I enjoyed reading the review.

This sounds like a product I need in my life. I don’t eat much meat so I try to get protein other ways. Thanks for the great recipe!

I have to look into this more. I am trying to step up my protein more with the winter coming. Hoping it helps keep me fuller so I am not snacking so much being indoors more with work and home.

I think of myself as someone who doesn’t like smoothies. I don’t want to drink something that looks and tastes like lawn clippings in a blender. But this post may have changed my mind. I would definitely try this – peanut butter & chocolate for breakfast. Whats not to love?
A protein smoothie has to taste good for me to drink it so this is one recipe I would try. It looks like it would be very satisfying as well as healthy.
