Mocha Yogurt Keto Smoothie That Is High in Protein [Recipe]

A mocha yogurt keto smoothie sounds unhealthy, right? That would be wrong to assume, because this treat tastes just like your favorite frozen yogurt but without the added calories and guilt. This treat is a fantastic way to stay keto while giving your body a little bit of sweetness.

This Mocha Yogurt Keto Smoothie Is The Healthy Fro-Yo You Need To Try! 

While it is true that dairy tends to not be within the acceptable list of foods in the keto diet, plain full-fat yogurt is safe and very nutritious. In this case, using this yogurt gives your smoothie added protein, calcium, and vitamin D, all of which you need daily.

To make things more flavorful, you can use cocoa powder and instant coffee granules. Both of these ingredients add a kick to your beverage, but are also high in antioxidants and can help protect your body against oxidative damage. Who says that chocolate and coffee have to be unhealthy? When mixed with the creaminess of the yogurt, the cocoa powder and coffee begin to shine and will not add any unwanted sugar or carbohydrates.

For this smoothie, you will also want to use almond milk, which is always a safe bet when you are on the keto diet. Make sure to choose the unsweetened kind, as it is low in calories and fat.

Because the yogurt and almond milk are both unsweetened, you will need to use Stevia. No need to worry, though, because this sweetener is all-natural and adds no unwanted calories.

Prepare your smoothie by blending everything until your drink is smooth, or until you obtain the texture you like.

Serve this smoothie cold with coconut flakes on top for a bit of extra crunch and sweetness! Try making this mocha yogurt keto smoothie next time you crave ice cream and you will not even notice the difference.
