Shamrock Protein Shake Recipe

Anyone else tempted by McDonald’s St. Patrick’s Day Inspired Shamrock Shake?  Yep, Me too! But knowing that it has over 800 calories in a single serving, I’ve made the decision to avoid this shake if at all possible. Instead, I’ve put together my own variation or copycat recipe of this popular Shamrock Shake and I’ve added my favorite She Activates Vanilla Protein Powder to make it healthier.  This delicious Shamrock Protein Shake Recipe is a great go-to breakfast option or you can make it as a sweet treat after your workout.  Your kids are going to love this recipe too, especially the chocolate chips paired with the mint flavor and creamy vanilla frozen yogurt.

Variations to making my Shamrock Protein Shake 

Try adding chocolate protein powder for a more chocolatey flavor and you can replace the vanilla frozen yogurt with mint chocolate chip frozen yogurt.
