Your post workout meal should contain a well balanced combination of protein and carbs. This recipe has the combination of protein, fat, and carbs.
Nutrition information (per serving):
| calories | Protein | Fat | Carbs | Sugar |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 290 | 20g | 6g | 42g | 30g |
Now I know some of you might say that, there is huge amount of sugar. But since you've burned many calories during the workout and lost electrolytes, this amount will not harm your body, because it will be natural sugars which will be from the raspberries, cheese, and milk.
If you want to cut back on some of the added sugar, cut the honey. But remember, Post-workout, you should consume some source of carbs to replenish that your muscles have burned.
Ingredients:
1 cup raspberries (frozen will also do)
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup milk (low fat preferred)
1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
1 tsp vanilla syrup
2 tsp honey (optional)
1/2 lemon, juiced
Directions:
1.Combine the raspberries, cottage cheese, and milk in a blender until the raspberries are well blended.
2.Add rest of the ingredients and blend well.
3.Pour into a glass and garnish with raspberry.
Note:
1.Strawberries can be used instead of raspberries.
