Pumpkin Seed Protein Shake

This pumpkin seed protein shake makes a quick afternoon snack. I like the taste of it without any banana (the nuttiness is more forward), but when I want a creamier consistency or a more filling snack, I'll add in banana. When I need to turn it into a meal for my husband for work, I add in 2-3 frozen bananas, a handful of spinach if I have it on hand, and an extra cup of water to blend.

Ingredients

1- 2 1/2 cups cold water 1 without any banana, 1 1/2 cups if using a fresh banana and chia seeds, 2 1/2 if using 2-3 frozen bananas and chia seeds
2 TBSP Wilderness Poet's pumpkin seed protein powder*
1/2 tsp ceylon cinnamon
1 -2 dates
1 TBSP chia seeds
optional 1 tsp Wilderness Poets lions mane powder - a brain boosting add in
optional banana(s) - fresh or frozen, but I prefer frozen in this one
optional handful of spinach when using bananas as well

Method

Add everything to your blender and blend. Pour it in a glass and let it sit for about 15 minutes until the chia seeds expand some. I personally blend everything but the chia seeds and then stir them into my glass or shake it all in a jar. However, adding it all to the blender might be easier. Enjoy!
