    • 📖 Recipe

    The other night, I didn't feel like making dinner after work as I wasn't that hungry. It was a pretty hot day for the fall season, we were over 70 degrees F here in Southern New England.

    Ice cream would have been in order, but I didn't have any low carb or sugar free frozen desserts in the freezer and I didn't feel like going out shopping. So, I decided to make a strawberry protein shake made with unsweetened almond milk, yogurt and vanilla whey protein.

    To get a thick shake, I added a handful of ice cubes to the blender. I like strawberry ice cream and had a bag of frozen strawberries in the freezer so I put in a handful of those as well.

    shake recipe steps

    This strawberry protein shake was a very filling dinner. Most regular grocery stores sell almond milk, but I haven't been able to find any that is unsweetened.

    Some of the natural food stores may have it. I bought mine at Whole Foods Market. And, as dairy free milk becomes more popular, it should be available in all local grocery stores.

    You can make almond milk yourself from almonds. It's actually not that hard to do. It just takes time as you'll need to soak the nuts for a while to soften them.

    I don't shop there that often because the closest store is about 30 miles away. I know others who buy unsweetened almond milk at Trader Joe's, but the closest TJ's for me is over an hour away.

    One of the local natural food stores in my area just expanded to a new location, but I haven't checked out their new store yet. There's a small natural store a couple miles from where I work, but it's rather small and they don't carry a lot of fresh food items.

    You can also use coconut milk in this protein shake. It does add coconut flavor. Or, you could make a coconut milk strawberry smoothie.

    The carbs in this shake are likely lower than stated. It's the way carbs are calculated for yogurt aren't accurate. That's because the cultures eat most of the sugars. But if you want another option, give my strawberry avocado keto smoothie a try.

    You can find learn more out about choosing a yogurt lowest in carbs on Livestrong. And, if you'd like to make your own plain Greek yogurt, it's super simple to do in the Instant Pot. Check out the low carb yogurt recipe.

        Yes. You'll just need to whip it up in a larger blender.

      Hi,this strawberry milkshake looks really good to drink.is it good for diabetics to drink at home? I am a type 2 diabetic,I am lactose intolerant so I can't drink regular 1 or 2 percent milk.i use natrel milk,natrel ice cream,no sugar added ice cream,almond milk,coconut milk,protein powder,fruit like strawberry cherry frozen fruit,2 packets of stevia powder that I put in my one person magic bullet blender.
      I can't put honey or maple syrup in my shakes or smoothies,I use put avocado,protein powder,almond milk,coconut milk,natrel milk,frozen fruit,yogurt,and 2 stevia powder packets in my smoothies with chia seed powder to keep my blood sugar under control,along with going for long walks around the city where I live as well as walk around one of the several walls in the city where I live.

        Kim, this shake is fine for diabetics. There's only 7g total carbs (4g net if you subtract the fiber). Greek yogurt also has fewer carbs than stated on the label as most of the sugar has been consumed by the culture. You could sub out the yogurt with half an avocado if desired.

      Hi, found this and made a *few* changes. I used 1 cup of Greek yorgurt, no almond milk, 1/2 cup of whipping cream, 2 tblsp of cream cheese, 2 tblsp of MCT oil, 1/2 cup of frozen mixed berries, 2 tblsp of cocoa powder, 4 packets of Truvia, and 1/2 cup of water. It tastes awesome! How about the nutrition facts of this concoction...anyone?

      I freeze unsweetened almond or cashew milk in ice cube trays. For a smoothie, I drop 10 cubes through the hole in the top of my blender, add protein powder, fruit, sweetner, and a splash of milk. The frozen milk makes a "snow" that mixes well. The cashew milk is a little creamier.

      This looks really great, very cool and creamy. I love unsweetened almond milk (I use blue diamond, every day). To me it's the most versatile dairy substitute.
