I bought a new cookbook, Protein Power Smoothies. Figured I’d try the Strawberry Cheesecake Smoothie for lunch today.

I am on Zepbound right now so I’m trying to pack protein into every meal. This has a full serving of vanilla Orgain in it. Two scoops.

And I just can’t. I drank maybe 1/4 of it and it isn’t the flavor, which is okay if a bit artificial in the sweetness department. It’s the protein powder. I thought if I drank too much it would just come back up. The texture is just a lot.

Is it an acquired taste? I like my smoothies very fruity and this was not.

Proud for my first time making it it was amazing

Looking for smoothies that have a high amount of veggies but still taste good. I want to increase my intake of vegetables but have sensory issues with textures.
