Nothing can be quite as delicious and satisfying as a great diet shake, especially in the hot weather months that we are now enjoying. Whether you choose to go to the mall and visit a nutritional supplement shop, so you can add supplements to your diet shake recipes or whether you prefer your diet shake recipes to contain just what you can get at the farm stand or grocery store; there are a million diet shake recipes out there. It can also be quite fun to experiment with your diet shake recipes and add your own personal touches to your delicious creations.
One of my favorite ingredients to add to any smoothie or diet shake recipes is low-fat yogurt. No mater whether you are making a water-based (ice) shake or a dairy-based (2 % milk) diet shake recipe, a little container of yogurt can add a lot. Yogurt adds a nice creamy consistency to your diet shake recipes, and I wholeheartedly recommend that you try it in your favorite smoothie recipe the first chance you get.
