Tom Brady Smoothie (But Actually Good)

Tom Brady Smoothie (But Actually Good)

We tried Tom Brady's actual smoothie recipe and honestly, it was terrible. So we made our own version — same nutrient-dense spirit with seeds, nuts, oats, and blueberries, but this one you'll actually want to drink.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Smoothie

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups milk of choice
  • 1 cup frozen organic blueberries
  • 1 medium banana
  • 1/3 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 handful of walnuts
  • 1/2 tablespoon hemp seeds optional
  • 1/2 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground flax seeds
  • 1 cup ice

Equipment

  • Vitamix blender

Method
 

  1. Add milk, blueberries, banana, oats, almond butter, and protein powder to your Vitamix in that order.
  2. Drop in the walnuts, hemp seeds, chia seeds, and ground flax seeds.
  3. Top with ice. Secure the lid and blend on high for 45–60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour and enjoy. This one's thick — if it's too thick for you, add a splash more milk and blend for another 10 seconds.

Notes

Lenny & Shalva's note: This smoothie is thick and meal-like by design. If you want it thinner, start with 2 cups of milk instead. The chia seeds will thicken things up even more if it sits, so drink it soon after blending. If you're prepping ahead, measure out the dry ingredients (seeds, oats, protein powder, walnuts) into a jar the night before — then just dump, add your liquids and frozen stuff, and blend.
