A superfood shake

With four of our six superfoods plus strawberries—which have lots of carbohydrates to replenish glycogen stores and antioxidants to counteract exercised-induced tissue damage—this shake is as healthy and rejuvenating as it is delicious. Drink it within 30 minutes of a workout for maximum benefit.

Place 1 cup strawberries, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 scoop (10 grams) protein powder, 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1 tablespoon almond butter (or 2 tablespoons almonds) in a blender or food processor.

Blend until smooth, then add ice and blend again until thick and frothy. Serves 1.
