Tropical Sunrise Smoothie Featuring Premier Protein Shakes #AD

By: The Food Hunter

Over the years I've found that the more active you are the more protein you need in your diet both to help you build muscle and to provide you with the energy to perform at your best. According to research, eating a diet high in protein can also help manage obesity, diabetes and osteoporosis.

Protein rich foods like eggs, almonds, chicken, and fish are all great options for those living an active lifestyle like myself. Another way to meet your daily protein goals is the use of a protein powder/shakes. Protein in the form of shakes, like Premier Protein banana and cream or their more traditional vanilla & chocolate, can be eaten alone or combined with your favorite fruits to make delicious smoothies like the one below. Premier protein shakes have 30 grams of protein and are only 160 calories.

For those of you that shop at Costco they are currently offering (8/3-8/17) $5 off an 18-pack of Premier Protein Shakes. Grab some and give the recipe below a try before your next workout.
