Chocolate Recover Zucchini Bread Smoothie

Chocolate Recover Zucchini Bread Smoothie

A warm, freshly baked slice of zucchini bread can’t be beat.

Unless, of course, you blend up this lip-smacking Chocolate Zucchini Bread Smoothie.

To get a delectable chocolatey flavor, this recipe uses a scoop of Beachbody Performance Chocolate Recover.

Add in almond milk, a banana, cinnamon, and an ENTIRE zucchini, and you’ve got a healthy, delicious shake that tastes just like the real thing.

(And if you’re a card-carrying member of the “I Hate Vegetables” Club, don’t worry — you can’t taste the zucchini!)

Pro tips:

  • Add ice to the smoothie if you like a thicker consistency. Add water if you want a thinner consistency.
  • Zucchini adds a wonderful, creamy consistency to this smoothie, but cauliflower or yellow squash can achieve the same effect.
