Have a sweet-tooth but trying to stay on a low-carb dietary plan? This Chocolate Almond Shake is the perfect solution! Made with just a few nutritious ingredients, it's a tasty smoothie that can be made in just minutes!
Low-Carb Chocolate Almond Shake Recipe
If you're following a low-carb diet, it's not always easy to find shake recipes that taste amazing yet fit into your dietary goals. So, here’s an indulgent Low-Carb Chocolate Almond Shake that’s incredibly satisfying and will surely fulfill your cravings for sweets. The almond butter and avocado in this shake not only add creaminess, but omega-3 fatty acids that are essential to overall health!
To keep this shake low-carb, I use one of my favorite ingredients: frozen cauliflower rice. It’s a great alternative to frozen banana because it still makes your shake thick and creamy without adding any flavor. Swap out frozen bananas with frozen cauliflower rice in any recipe and you'll instantly have a low-carb version. You’ll also be sneaking in a serving of veggies and fiber, so it’s a win-win situation!
What You Need to Make this Shake
This shake is bursting with flavor, but is actually made with just a few simple, whole food ingredients. All you need is 310 Organic Chocolate, frozen cauliflower rice, avocado, unsweetened almond milk, almond extract, almond butter, and ice. I like using frozen avocado when I want more thickness in my shake, or when I don’t have a ripe avocado readily available. You can typically find frozen avocados next to the frozen fruit section if you want to stock up on this fruit!
310 Organic Chocolate
Just because you’re following low-carb guidelines doesn’t mean you can’t satisfy your sweet tooth! If you're a chocolate lover, 310 Organic Chocolate is what you need for when the cravings hit. It’s made with plant-based Stevia and monk fruit for a naturally-sweetened shake that has a delicious and rich cocoa taste without any artificial flavors, additives, or sugar.
If that isn’t impressive enough, here are additional reasons why I recommend this shake to anyone and everyone!
- Vegan, keto, and paleo-friendly
- Free from sugar, soy, dairy, gluten, artificial flavorings, and GMOs
- 15g of plant-based proteins from pumpkin, brown rice, and pea
- Contains a blend of organic superfoods including turmeric, beet root, ginger, spirulina, and more!
Ways to “Shake Up” this Recipe
I'm a big fan of the creaminess of this shake, but there are several ways you can add more texture, flavor, and nutrition with just a few extra ingredients! Below are some alternatives you can pick and choose from, or you can add your personal favorites to suit your preferences.
