This collection of recipes is perfect for all athletes. Whether you’re looking for a quick nutritious breakfast or a powerful post-workout shake, you’ll find the recipe you’re looking for. As with any smoothie, many additives can be added for a variety of reasons. You can add any powdered product and it won’t affect taste, such as protein powder, wheat germ, oatmeal, 100% bran cereal, soy powder, rice powder, flaxseed oil, bee pollen, etc. All of these products are available in health food stores. You can throw just about anything in a smoothie to enhance its flavor such as honey, tofu, jams, any combination of fruits, peanut butter, juices, etc., but keep in mind it will effect the nutritional values listed below. I put a lot of time and effort into this cookbook and hope you enjoy them as much as I do. For most of the recipes, all you need is a blender. Plus, you’ll save lots of money by making smoothies instead of buying expensive protein bars, which usually have lots of additives and usually taste like chalk. Once you start making these nutritious smoothies, you’ll never go back to protein bars. Enjoy and happy ‘smoothing’.
