If you like piña coladas

20 grams of vegan protein per serving.
How's that for an opener! I have just recently started my Arbonne business. Last night was my first Launch party and we had a blast! I wish I had taken some pics or video because we made four different shake recipes to share with our guests. (I partnered with one of my fellow Independent Consultants who is also new to the business so we could lean on each other.) This week I will share the recipes with you here.

I happen to ♥ piña coladas! This recipe brings the tropics right to my glass and I love to drink it outside in the sunshine (in fact, I am sipping one right now). For those of you experiencing some colder weather, it will take you back to summer. But beware...the fruits in this recipe are not as low on the glycemic index as the fruits recommended in 30 Days to Fit program but hey, I am all about "progress, not perfection."

Arbonne Essentials Vanilla Protein Shake mix is my FAVORITE! Don't get me wrong, the chocolate is absolutely delish too but the vanilla is my base for so many yummy recipes...so versatile!! It is VEGAN and GLUTEN FREE (yes, I am yelling...this is exciting, people!) and it fills even me up for hours. That is impressive. Seriously.

Piña Colada Protein Shake
2 scoops Vanilla Arbonne Essentials Protein Shake Mix
1 scoop Arbonne Essentials Daily Fiber Boost (ONLY 1 scoop a day!) 
Ice (depends on how icy you like it...I use 5-6 cubes)
1 cup Almond Milk
1 Banana
1 cup fresh pineapple (or organic canned in its own juice)
1 large spoonful shaved coconut
1 handful spinach
1 handful kale (You cannot even taste the spinach and kale...the way it should be!)
Add water to achieve desired texture
Blend!

Disclaimer: All measurements are approximate. I actually don't measure anything except the Protein Shake Mix and the Daily Fiber Boost. Taste before you serve and adjust as needed.☺

Till next time...dream big, work smart.
