This Tart Cherry Strawberry Protein Smoothie is an excellent 3-block post-workout snack. It contains a higher concentration of carbs, than most 3-block meals, to ignite the insulin process that fights exercised induced cortisol (stress) levels, and the proteins assist in repairing the muscles used during the workout, while the tart cherry juice combats inflammation.
