This Strawberry Protein Shake recipe ? is my healthy twist on a childhood favorite. Growing up in Bulgaria, my mom would take me to the McDonald’s drive-thru after school for a mini cheeseburger, fries, and that iconic strawberry milkshake (plus the Happy Meal toy, of course ?).

This shake ? is creamy, naturally sweet, and delivers over 30 grams of protein. It’s quick, wholesome, and so good you’ll want to drink it every day! Let’s make it!"]
Notes
Strawberries: Use frozen strawberries to add a creamier texture to this recipe.
Milk: Feel free to use whichever plant-based or full-dairy milk you prefer, including almond, soy, oat, coconut, or cow's milk!
Cottage Cheese: Cottage cheese gives this recipe a protein boost, but if you're fresh out, Greek yogurt works well here, too!
