Whey Protein Smoothie

Looking to increase your protein intake? Try this healthy whey protein smoothie that’s both delicious and nutritious.

My recent workouts have included heavier lifting and thus I feel the need to add more protein into my diet. One easy way to achieve that is by adding a few scoops of whey protein powder.
