    This chocolate shake is the perfect post workout shake, it contains no dairy and consists of cacao powder, chia seeds, powdered peanut butter, dates to sweeten and plant based milk.

    If you are like me and enjoy rotating between eating and drinking your way to optimise your protein levels then this recipe is perfect for you.

    It's a shake that is super simple, tasty, nutritious (of course), made in less than 5 minutes and perfect to depend on after an intensive workout session.

    If you have been following my blog from the very beginning then you will know how passionate I am about health and well being.

    Not only do I like to eat my way to good health but I also like to drink my way their too, that's why I teamed up with Naked Nutrition to make one of my must try shakes!

    As a gym goer, whether I'm doing cardio and/or weight training I always have a post protein shake straight after my session.

    I also have a sweet tooth and love anything that's chocolate based, hence this Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Shake.

    It's a plant based shake that I have on rotation with My Peanut Butter Banana Breakfast Smoothie.

    It's such a good source of protein and really helps to replenish my energy levels and assist with the building blocks that are needed to build muscle.

    It's an overall great shake to have after a solid workout.

    Ingredients you will need

    ingredients for vegan chocolate peanut butter shake

    • Cacao: This is the perfect plant based friendly cacao because it is completely unadulterated meaning it contains no additives/extras so you're getting all that goodness. If you can't tolerate cacao, carob is a good substitute.
    • Almond milk: It's a great option if you're on a budget and looking for a milk that is creamy and isn't overpowering in taste.
    • Dates: I add about 4-5 of these for subtle sweetness.
    • Chia seeds: Again, a great source of protein and amino acids (building blocks).
    • Powdered peanut butter: I'm using Naked Nutrition Naked PB. This is 100% premium powdered peanut butter made from roasted peanuts.

    Each scoop of powder contains 6 grams of protein and 0.9 grams of BCAA's. You can also combine this with your favourite vegan protein powder if you want to enhance your protein levels further.

    I'm absolutely elated that this protein powder is 100% pure because as you already know I try to avoid fillers/extras where possible.

    If you're looking for a pure powdered version of peanut butter then I do highly recommend trying this brand.

    The jar is HUGE and the taste is amazing, there's no bitter or weird after taste either, you can use it neat if you want to which is a great advantage. I'm even tempted to use it to make Jamaican Peanut Porridge.

    One huge plus that I should point out is that the product has also under gone third party testing so that added assurance is there to confirm you're not using something impure.

    The steps

    steps 1-2 blitzing the ingredients to make the shake
