Soybean Milk Protein smoothie

Image
This is what I drank after my Leg workout. The day before my mom boiled soybeans and then we put them in the blender and gave them a whirl. (we had Korean Kong Guk Su - Soybean cold noodles) So with some of the leftover soybean milk mixture I decided to incorporate into a smoothie. +frozen blueberries +fresh squeezed orange juice +strawberries +chia seeds I'm trying to add chia seeds to my daily routine because for nutrition-wise, they contain a lot of fat and protein and not much carbs. Also for that reason they also can help curb hunger. This would be useful in a keto/low carb diet since there's not much carbs (in your diet) to keep you full longer. :)

omg why didn't I think of using tofu in shakes before?? I sometimes love to just eat raw, silken tofu  because it's kind of like pudding... Tchh who needs protein powder anyways. I love this more natural alternative! < In this smoothie for my post-workout: Pineapples, strawberries, banana, 1/2 cup of tofu and some water. Delicious =) Happy Dianasaur The first two links are more information about tofu as protein source in smoothies and the last link is a recipe for a chocolate/tofu milkshake! http://www.livestrong.com/article/182441-how-to-make-your-own-gym-protein-shake/ http://www.livestrong.com/article/85985-make-protein-shakes-protein-powder/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2012/09/12/chocolate-protein-milkshake/ healthy, gym, fitness, workout, protein, proteinshake, cheaper, natural, smoothie, post workout, fruits, strawberry, pineapple, banana, tofu, soy,
