Healthier Copycat Shamrock Shake

colorfulsuperfoodie
A childhood classic of mine I looked forward to was the Shamrock Shake at McDonald's around St. Patrick's Day! As much as I love them, I'm not a fan of the sugar crash that follows haha. I have come up with a delicious copycat recipe that is more blood sugar balanced and contains healthy fats, fiber, and protein! This Copycat Shamrock Shake is definitely something you'll enjoy and feel great afterwards! I may have also sneaked some veggies into this shake but you can't tell!
