High Calorie Recipe: Super Protein Power Smoothie

  • About
  • About

PART OF: NUTRITION SERVICES FOR CANCER PATIENTS > ALL RECIPES

Smoothie making made easy:

  • Thoroughly wash all fruit and vegetables before using them in a smoothie. If your white blood count is low, be sure to check with your medical team if it is OK to eat fresh fruit and vegetables.
  • If your mouth is sore, skip fruit that contains small seeds (berries, kiwi). These tiny seeds can irritate a sore mouth. Use fruits without seeds (and less acidic), bananas, peaches, nectarines or pears without skins. And skip the flax seeds if your mouth is sore.
  • NEVER use raw eggs in a smoothie.
  • For a lactose-free diet, choose lactose-free liquid and lactose-free yogurt.

Prep Time:  10 minutes

2 tablespoons protein powder (any type)

1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds

1 banana

1 cup any liquid (milk, soy milk, rice milk, Boost ®, Ensure ®, Boost Plus ® or Ensure Plus ®, or a generic version of one of these products) – use more than 1 cup if needed to blend.

Cooking Directions:

  1. Measure and prepare solid ingredients.  Place these ingredients in the blender.
  2. Add liquid ingredients to blender.  Blend all of the ingredients together to your desired consistency.
  3. Add additional liquid to the blender if needed to thin out consistency for better blending. Depending on the strength of your blender, you may need more or less liquid to make the mixture blend.
