Peanut Brittle Protein Shake Recipe

By Hugo Rivera, About.com

Here's a fun way to satisfy a junk food craving without sending your blood sugar sky-high with real peanut brittle. At the same time, you'll be nourishing your body with lots of protein and healthy unsaturated fat.

Prep Time: 2 hours,

Ingredients:

  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tbsp sugar-free instant butterscotch pudding mix (dry)
  • 1 tbsp natural peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
  • 8 oz. water (or low-fat milk)
  • 3-6 ice cubes

Preparation:

Add all ingredients to blender, whip, and serve. I like to use chunky peanut peanut butter and add it last so that it it stays chunky (like peanut brittle) but it tastes just as good with a smoother consistency.
