Craving a chocolate shake? Make this Dark Chocolate Date Protein Smoothie instead for the same great flavor, but so much more nutrition! With 10g of protein and 9g of fiber, this protein smoothie is the perfect post-workout snack or breakfast on the go. We have a pretty great routine down in the mornings on Team Fit Foodie. After our workout, two of us jump in the showers, and the other starts breakfast — then we swap. Usually by the time the first round of showers are done, breakfast is nearly whipped up. One morning we were all craving something chocolatey and full of protein + greens and by the time I got out of the shower, I had this amazing smoothie waiting for me. Guys, you’re going to love this one.
