Take yourself back to your childhood with this nostalgic PB & J Protein Smoothie!  Start your morning off right — this recipe packs a serious protein punch with 29 grams per serving.  Perfect for a quick breakfast when you’re on the go or a post-workout refuel that tastes like a treat.

I absolutely love the rich peanut butter flavor mixed with the strawberry preserves. It’s sweet and decadent, but also good for you. So, basically it’s a total win-win.

Ingredients for a PB & J Protein Smoothie

The ingredients for this smoothie are most likely already found in your pantry, making it an easy “throw together” post-workout or quick breakfast option. Most people have peanut butter and some sort of preserves in their home, especially if they have children or have a sweet tooth like me!

  PB&J Protein Smoothie

  • vanilla protein powder (I use She Activates)
  • peanut butter
  • strawberry preserves (skinny swap sugar free)
  • whole milk (skinny swap unsweetened almond milk)
  • ice

Is This Recipe Customizable?

Yes!  If you’re watching your calories or sugar intake, I have two Skinny Swap options that cut back on both. You can swap the strawberry preserves for its sugar-free counterpart and the whole milk for unsweetened almond milk. Both of these swaps don’t compromise on flavor so you can still enjoy a sweet treat.

You can also change up the preserves flavor that you use in this PB & J Protein Smoothie. Grape preserves or jelly are a viable option, but I would avoid anything with seeds if you have trouble with texture.

Instead of peanut butter, you could also try almond butter if that’s more your speed.

How Do I Make This Recipe?

This recipe is super simple. Once you’ve gathered the ingredients, it literally has one step:

  1. Blend all of the ingredients together in a blender until smooth.

I usually put the ice down first, then the milk, protein powder, peanut butter, and preserves, but you can use whatever order works best for you and your blender.
