This shake is sort of a smoothie disguised as a chocolate shake—it has greens and plenty of protein, but it tastes chocolatey, rich and decadent. Hand it to an unsuspecting party and they’d never guess it was a protein shake, let alone a vegan protein shake!

2 servingsDepending on the quality of your blender, you may need to add the frozen fruit in batches and/or stop the blender to stir the mixture in order for it to blend more smoothly.
You can use dairy milk/yogurt, kefir, or ice cream in place of the non-dairy ingredients (chocolate or cherry-flavored would be best) for more protein. You can also use hemp seeds in place of the chia seeds as a protein source.

I have a SERIOUS sweet tooth, so I’m always looking for fresh, healthy desserts to keep me satisfied. This is perfection!
Love that this shake has the nice (kale) AND the naughty (chocolate). I am usually hesitant to add greens to my shakes for fear of making them bitter. But this looks like a really nice combo. Bookmarking it to try soon!
You honestly don’t even taste the greens—especially if you have a more high-tech blender, it pulverizes them completely. I find using baby greens like baby kale helps a little in the taste department, too!
A protein milkshake. Yum! Sounds like the best post workout meal! Thanks for sharing!
This looks yummy! I’m going to have to try this, Haha. It has to be better than wendy’s frosty’s i am currently hooked on. Shhh, don’t tell my boyfriend. Haha. I’ve pinned this for later. Thanks for sharing & happy Thursday!
Yeah, if you have a frosty addiction, this should do the trick 🙂
Awesome! Hope you love it. It’s seriously so decadent it feels like there’s no way it could be healthy. But it is!
This is definitely a wonderful protein shake. My daughter is vegan and will love it, me too!
Mmmmm…I ALWAYS want a chocolate milkshake. I’ll take the healthy green smoothie part as a bonus. I’ve got everything but the ice cream on hand – I’ll have to pick some up so I can make this over the weekend. 🙂
I’m totally down for a smoothie disguised as a milkshake! And chocolate + cherries can’t be beat!
Mmmm this sounds so good, yet it’s a bit healthier for you! How awesome!
I want a milk shake now! i think it’s time to start that blender up again! Glad to know i”M not the only that feels like barfing after I drink a regular milkshake.
Ha! I knew there were more of us out there. This one doesn’t have that “oh no, what have I done?” feeling afterwards 🙂
Eating some chocolate WITH my greens always sounds like a good idea to me! Throw cherries into the mix as well and I am a VERY happy camper. These sound great!
I just made this smoothie using coconut water and crushed ice in place of the coconut ice cream and it was fabulous! I am new to the vegan lifestyle so I’m always on the lookout for great new recipes to try. This one totally fits the bill! This smoothie was delicious, healthy and filling and I loved that there was kale added! You couldn’t even taste the kale with the addition of chocolate soy milk and peanut butter. Thanks so much for this recipe…I will make this one often!!
