If you're like me, anything chocolate covered gets a two thumbs WAY up, especially chocolate-covered strawberries. So when Kasondra e-mailed me from Team Beachbody about their amazing Shakeology mix, I just KNEW I had to give this a try.
I absolutely love morning shakes, especially with protein powder. They keep me energized, give me that sweet fix I'm craving, as well as fill me up without consuming unnecessary calories. This chocolate flavored protein powder from Shakeology seriously does that and more, and the best part?? It tastes delicious! This shake contains protein and essential amino acids that your body needs, as well as antioxidants, digestive enzymes and is gluten-free!
Sounds great, huh??
Well out of all their delicious recipes, I decided to make their Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Shake. It tasted DELICIOUS! Definitely felt like such an indulgent breakfast before work, but it really wasn't. Such a great way to start off my morning and I wasn't starving by lunch time. Feel free to make these at work too around lunch time so you feel energized for the gym later. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

Looks great Kelly. We are a big fan of shakes and smoothies at our house. We have bags of frozen fruit in the freezer and the kids get all excited about picking the fruit combination!
This sounds great and looks great too :)

Loove your pictures! Looks delicious, chocolate and strawberries seems a great union to me hehe

That looks really delish!
ohmygosh this looks so good! I love how you always add nutrition info.
Great job, Kelly!
Pretty tasty! I usually do a fruity protein shake after spinning. I think a chocolate mix up would be lovely! Buzzed!
I'm weird and only like chocolate things that have others things mixed in like nuts, or fruit. No solid chocolate for me! But I'm in luck because that's what this milkshake is, love!
This looks great - Shakeology is everywhere in my life lately maybe I should try it out - like a cosmic hint hint or something!
I'm glad to hear it tastes great. I really dislike "healthy chocolate" anything that really tastes horrible. Thank you for sharing the information!
Yum, looks like a perfect treat.

This sounds so good! I love shakes :)
This sounds so indulgent for breakfast but the nutritional information is great. I can't wait to give this a try sometime. Yummy!
That shake looks great! I heart chocolate, and this shake, with all the protein sounds fantastic!
So off topic, but I've been away from the blogging world, and totally forgot that you tagged me for the 7 links! I will do that by tonight!! AHHHH~! =]
Looks good, Kelly! I've been reading a lot about Shakeology, but it seemed kind of expensive? Where do you buy yours from?
Hi Kelly!
Sounds good! My favorite is the chocolate protein powder, a banana, a small teaspoon of peanut butter, 1/2 cup of coffee, 1/2 cup of milk and some ice in a blender- really hits all your breakfast essentials there and FILLS YOU UP!
Question - have you tried the Greenberry flavor of Shakeolgy? I want to try it, but it's not cheap if it turns out to be awful.
Thanks!
Chocolate and strawberry is always a winning combo! This shake sounds great!
I'll surely loves this! I loves having power shakes in the morning
Loves all the ingredients & loves the photo ;)
Tq for sharing the recipe! :)
I love beach body products! My hubby and I do Insanity. : )
Strawberries and chocolate does sound like a winning combination.
I am struggling to get enough protein in my diet each day and I have been thinking about incorporating protein shakes.
Thanks for sharing the review.
Kelly, your photos are fantastic! Chocolate and strawberry...sounds delish!
Looks great! you cant go wrong with chocolate covered strawberries! I love shakes and this flavor combo sounds like it would be heaven in the morning.

I love shakes in the morning... I cleaned my kitchen and hid my blender, I need to get it out before it gets too cold to have these anymore!
Hey everyone!! I'm the coach that gave Kelly the sample! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me!

What a great idea! I didn't have the Shakeology powder so I substituted with cocoa powder and added a little bit of chocolate syrup because I thought it needed a sweetening up. Thanks for inspiring me to try something new. :) It was a perfect refreshment to have after my run. Next time I'll try with the powder. I can't wait to try more of your recipes!
