RECIPE: Oatmeal Cookie Protein Shake

 

[Print this Recipe]

 

Oatmeal cookies are one of my guilty pleasures. 

 

When I have a warm plate of oatmeal cookies in front of me, I lie to myself.  Oatmeal is healthy, I say.  It's true; oatmeal is healthy.  Oatmeal cookies with butter, sugar, and white flour are not healthy.

 

This protein shake is good for you.  I promise.  It is also tasty.  The plain soy protein powder gives it a slight taste of oatmeal with a touch of cinnamon and vanilla.

The recipe makes two servings at 200 calories for each serving.
