Never Miss Breakfast Again With These Homemade Protein Shakes

We’ve all been there. You’re rushing to get ready for class, and then it hits you: you haven’t eaten anything yet, and by the time class is over all the dining halls will be closed. 

There are plenty of protein shakes you can buy at the grocery store that are easy to grab and go, but they’re often filled with ingredients you probably can’t pronounce, not to mention they aren’t cheap.

Save your money and confusion deciphering strange ingredients by making these homemade protein shakes. These recipes each come in at around 300 calories. Obviously everyone is built differently, so if you need to adjust the calories feel free to cut or double portions of the ingredients.
