Here’s an age-old dilemma for you, one that I’ve experienced more than once during my time on this planet: You want a milkshake. Desperately. Unfortunately, if you drink said milkshake it will contribute to an already tight fit in the pants department due to your prior over-consumption of this sweet, majestic beverage. Sound familiar? Fear not, friends, because I have a solution!
Hello Weary Chef pals! It’s Kirsten here, otherwise known as Andi’s social media assistant. I’m here today to tell you about the best possible way to trick your brain into eating (or drinking) healthily: Smoothies that taste like milkshakes. It’s like the Smoothie Gods have heard our milkshake-related cries for help. Let’s face it; we all know how horrible you feel after consuming a milkshake. The guilt. The shame. The imminent feeling of doom in your lower intestine. I’m not going to spoil Andi’s family-friendly blog with a graphic explanation of this (although perhaps I already have), but let’s just say that for me, smoothies that taste like milkshakes are by far the best option. Don’t believe me? Just check these bad boys out. (Click the photos to see the recipes.)
