If you’re feeling like something a little decadent and chocolatey, without the excess sugar, we love adding GYM BOD’s Cookies & Cream Ice Cream to our Cookies & Cream Protein Shake. With chunks of Oreo-style cookies mixed through the creamy goodness, this ice cream is low-calorie and low-sugar, with 21 g of protein per tub for an extra protein boost to start your day! That means it will help you feel fuller for longer, while adding some deliciousness to your sweet morning smoothie.
