Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, nonfat)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 6 pieces ice cubes

Instructions
Wash and hull the fresh strawberries, ensuring they are clean and ready to use.
In a high-powered blender, combine the strawberries, vanilla protein powder, unsweetened almond milk, plain nonfat Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, chia seeds, ice cubes, and vanilla extract.
Blend the mixture on high for 1-2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy. If the shake is too thick, add a bit more almond milk and blend again to reach your desired consistency.

Pour the shake into two glasses and serve immediately.
Optionally, garnish with a fresh strawberry or a sprinkle of chia seeds.
