This refreshing Chocolate Cherry Protein Smoothie is healthy, delicious and tastes like a decadent treat!
It’s a satisfying way to boost your protein intake and is really convenient for refueling before or after a workout. Protein helps stabilize your blood sugar, makes you feel more full and satisfied and has the added benefit of supporting muscle tissue.
Cherries contain Vitamin C (great for your immune system) (1), potassium (which supports your ability to contract your muscles among other important functions) (2), and fiber (which helps keep your digestive system healthy) (3).
I’ve also included my I Chocolate Protein powder, which is a 100% ORGANIC, high protein (21 grams per serving), nutrient-dense whole food protein powder that combines 4 plant-based protein sources into a delicious chocolate shake to support your active lifestyle!
Chocolate and Cherries are one of my favorite flavor combos – and if you’re a fan too, today’s smoothie recipe is going to be one you’ll enjoy making again and again!

Hi there! My husband and I are on our path to parenthood, and after facing the challenges of infertility, I decided to become a fertility coach and concierge. Our journey has inspired me to support others who may be experiencing something similar. While we're still on this road ourselves, I wanted to share our story and be a source of encouragement for those navigating their own paths to parenthood. Let’s take this journey together!
