LOW CARB STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE SMOOTHIE

This low carb strawberry cheesecake smoothie whips up in just minutes. It’s even more delicious than combining your favorite milkshake and cheesecake. I know from experience that when living a healthy low carb lifestyle you can often feel like your depriving yourself of things you love, like fruity smoothies and rich cheesecake. That’s why I’ve created this deliciously healthy smoothie.



Strawberry Cheesecake Smoothie - Great as a filling breakfast or post-workout recovery drink. This low carb smoothie is packed with protein and gives your favorite strawberry cheesecake a run for your money.

Do you know what two ingredients make this smoothie low carb friendly and high in protein? Silk Unsweetened Soy Milk and cottage cheese! The best part of using Silk’s unsweetened soy milk is that it’s a fantastic dairy free source of protein and works great for all of my friends who are allergic or aren’t huge fans of almond or coconut milk. As for the cottage cheese, it packs it’s fair share of protein, pairs well with fruits, and makes a decadently creamy smoothie.
