To start the day on the right foot, what could be better than a healthy, delicious and fast breakfast filled with protein? Unfortunately, you don't have time every day to make and enjoy a cup of coffee peacefully. Sound familiar? Maybe it's time to swap your morning coffee with this recipe for a protein-filled choco-coffee drink, making your life more trouble-free , delicious and chocolatey! Just use your blender…and you're done.
And who can say "no" to a drink that tastes like coffee? This choco-coffee drink alone contains 21 g of protein per serving. To prepare this beverage, simply use some ingenuity – use Natrel Plus Chocolate, which contains 2x more protein per serving and 50% less sugar than regular chocolate milk. Want more protein? Just add ground oats, which will also give this delicious drink a velvety, creamy flavour, keeping you satisfied all morning.
