Post Exercise Workout Smoothie Recipe #BBBProduct #freshfruitbowl
So when I found out while reading a post on Bodynutrition.org that Good Cook had a new bowl out for fresh fruit. I knew exactly what I was going to use mine for. I make a smoothie every morning after exercising. I’m running around 6 miles every other day.
This bowl is perfect for going and picking some fresh fruit and veggies from the garden. Just enough for one smoothie for me!
I took my bowl out, got some spinach, some kale, some blueberries, and some strawberries. Oh yummy! Seriously this stuff is really good even if you don’t think so at first.
Right now this bowl is only available at Bed Bath and Beyond and not on the Good Cook website.
This bowl is so cool though! It has 3 pieces. You have a large bowl, a colander inset, and then a lid. I love that the bowl has a silicone type ring on the bottom that helps to keep the bowl from moving around. I’m loving this for using in my garden picking! It is exclusively available at Bed Bath and Beyond though so don’t go looking for it on the Good Cook website!
It’s called the Profreshional Fruit Bowl and it not only helps to keep the fruit fresh, but it’s super easy to separate the fruit from the juice when you need it. The bowl is quite a bit larger than you think it might be. I loved how large it truly was and how much fruit could be placed in it.
- handful of kale
- handful of spinach
- half a dozen strawberries
- large handful of blueberries
- scoop rice protein or whey protein
- one half banana
- one half cup plain yoghurt
- one half avocado
- Get out your blender.
- Put all ingredients in the blender.
- Blend or Puree until fully mixed.
- Pour into mason jar.
- Enjoy!
- If this seems too thick to you simply add some almond milk. I tend to not add the milk as I like a really thick smoothie.

Not my type of smoothie, however my sister would love it. I’m not a Kale person. I’ll send the link to my sister. Thanks!
Erin S.
Hope she likes it! I was not sold on kale until I tried it in a smoothie.

I like smoothies after I workout, too. They are a great way to help your muscles recover after a good workout.
Erin S.
Definitely good for you.

You definitely burn calories faster if you eat AFTER you workout. Great recipe! I will have to give this a try!
Erin S.
I didn’t know that until recently. I just never liked eating before working out thinking I’d possibly get sick or something.

That post workout smoothie looks very healthy and hearty.
Erin S.
Very healthy! Great thing for when you’re being physically active.

This is great! I see a lot of people using kale these days in recipes. Glad to see it goes so well in a smoothie.
Erin S.
Kale is definitely one of the new superfoods. Very good for you, but very strong taste.

That sounds like a really good smoothie! And wow. 6 miles! I don’t know how you do it with all those kids! Most troopers I know don’t even run that much! Good Job!
Erin S.
I make my husband watch the kids for me in the morning or after bedtime. I try to run 6-7 miles at least 3 times a week and am trying a new workout program to lose this stubborn mommy tummy!

I need to get better at my post work out choices. This looks so much better than my bottle of water.
Erin S.
The water is great! Just add something like this to get some protein in too!

Looks like a very healthy workout smoothie, love all the greens in there.
Erin S.
Yes great way to get the greens!
Amanda @ Erickson & Co.
I love smoothies! I eat one almost every day. Homemade yogurt and frozen fruit makes a really good one! I love how I can put anything I want to in them!
Erin S.
Yes love frozen mango in a good smoothie!
Rosey
I’m with you, I could eat that or drink it. I like smoothies.

Love smoothies. Especially the ones that are not only good for you but taste good too.

I need to make that for my son after he lifts. He loves to boost his protein.
Erin S.
Protein is so good for you, but I have to disguise the protein powder flavor.
Donna
This sounds amazing! I’ve been looking for a good post-workout smoothie, too!
Erin S.
Glad I could help! Feel free to mix and match things to suit your tastes.
