    Frugal Foodie Friday: Rewarding Strawberry “Julius”

    0
    By Alisa Fleming on May 8, 2009 Alisa's Milk-Free Blog

    How to get enough protein is a question I get by so many people. Whether fitness buffs, bodybuilders, or moms concerned about growing kids, protein is an essential need, and milk products can be a quick “shortcut” to loading up. But there really are so many other great protein sources and so many wonderful ways to enjoy them! One of my favorite ways is this sneaky Strawberry Julius!

    Dairy-Free Protein Packed Strawberry Julius

    In search of my own protein balance, I created a smooth rich beverage that was intended for post workout recovery (it has a tasty ratio of 4:1 carbohydrates to protein), but can also be enjoyed as an afternoon treat for tots or anyone in need of an evergy boost. And best of all it uses that wonderful in-season fruit, strawberries!

    Keep in mind, my recipe for a Rewarding Strawberry Julius is very flexible. For the most authentic taste, use a pasteurized egg white (though plain egg protein powder works very nicely). For an egg-free experience, use another protein powder (such as rice or soy protein) for a more smoothie like consistency.

    Special Diet Notes: Strawberry Julius

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, nut-free, peanut-free, soy-free, and vegetarian. Optionally egg-free and vegan.

    • 3 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
    • ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract

    Instructions
    1. Combine the strawberries, water, honey, vanilla, ice, and salt (if using) in your blender and blend it to a nice smoothie consistency.
    2. Add more water or ice as you see fit.
