Hunger Blast Protein Smoothie

Do you ever get hungry at night but prefer not to eat something heavy because it’s so late? Or maybe you’re just not sure what you’re hungry for? This happens to me occasionally when I get home late from Run & Tone Class.

Every Monday and Wednesday evening I am LUCKY to meet up with a great group of women to bust out a run (weather permitting) and some butt kicking strength work. It’s most often close to 7:30 pm before I can sit down to dinner….that is if I have something prepped and ready when I walk in the door.

So those nights when I am rushed, hungry, and I unfortunately didn’t have time to meal plan, this smoothie is perfect! It’s not only delicious, but incredibly satisfying since I use my favorite protein and include plenty of healthy fats.

Can I make another suggestion?  PLEASE Do not limit this decadent smoothie to dinner time! It’s perfect for a afternoon snack, espeically after a day of intermittent fasting!

Seriously my friends, this is a great Hunger Blast Protein Smoothie for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or afternoon pick me up!
