This dark green, luscious shake is my go to drink when I need a little protein pick me up.

To me, the flavor of the kale is not that pronounced, what comes through is the creamy richness of the protein powder with the tart sweetness of the orange, thereby forming a yummy gluten-free, dairy-free creamsicle experience in a glass.  Enjoy!

  1. This is one of the first recipes that drew my attention to your site a little over a year ago now. Such an ingenious combination. I knew I had found a site that would actually bring new, exciting, healthy ideas into my life. I make it with 3 tablespoons of hemp seed and 2 teaspoons of vanilla instead of the egg white protein. Such a treat! Thank you.

  3. Hi Elana,
    I’ve been looking for a protein powder to supplement my breakfast, and I have tried 2 today that were AWFUL..Is this Frank Zane one good with just water?
    Or, if anyone else has tried this protein powder, would you recommend it?

    Thanks!

    Molly
