Pumpkin Cheesecake Protein Shake

Protein shakes are so easy to spruce up without a fuss and I've had fun trying to come up with fun additions to mimic my favorite desserts. I love pumpkin any time of year and pumpkin cheesecake has made its way into my heart. But since I can't indulge in that too often, I've made a still-sweet counterpart that will satisfy your sweet-tooth without ruining your diet.

Ingredients:
  • 1 Scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
  • 2 Tablespoons Cheesecake Pudding Mix*
  • 1 Cup Unsweetened Almond Breeze (or other milk)
  • 1/4 Cup Canned Pumpkin
  • 4 Drops of Vanilla Stevia
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • Ice
Directions:
  1. Place all ingredients in a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth.
  3. Pour into a glass and enjoy!

  4. *I use an all-natural pudding mix from Whole Foods instead of the Jell-O brand to keep with my clean diet.

Cheesecake not your thing? Try my pumpkin pie protein shake!

What are some of your favorite additions to your protein shake?
