Variations for Keto Strawberry Smoothie
- This recipe can be adapted into any Keto berry smoothie. Blueberries, blackberries and raspberries all lend unique flavors and are great choices for fruit on Keto.
- Change up the extract to give it a different twist. Coconut extract goes really well with strawberries.
- If you need a little more healthy fat for the day, you can always add a bit of coconut cream or full fat Greek yogurt.
- For a milder flavor with less carbs, you can replace the cream cheese with Mascarpone.
- You can also use unsweetened coconut milk, macadamia milk, or cashew milk instead of the almond milk, just be sure to adjust your macros any time you make variances in the recipe.
Can You Have Protein Powder on Keto?
Certain protein powders are perfectly fine on Keto. The issue is finding one that isn't loaded with sugar, artificial sweeteners, or preservatives that spike your blood sugar.
When you're looking for a protein powder brand, look for one, like Isopure, that's high quality, non GMO, with between 15 grams to 25 grams of protein per serving with no carbs.
How Many Carbs in Strawberries?
One cup of strawberries contains 12 total carbs with 3 grams of fiber resulting in 9 grams of net carbs. Strawberries have a low glycemic index making them an acceptable option for Keto and low carb diets.

I know what you mean, it's really hot (and humid) where I am too. I hope you enjoy cooling off the with the smoothie!

Would egg white protein or collagen peptide powder (not gelatin) give the sa,e result if using it instead of whey protein powder? I usually make this skip to avoid the isnulinogenic and glucose spike that whey can cause in some people (me included)...
Easy, quick, nourishing and widely customizable recipe: thank you 🙂
Keto Cooking Christian
Any protein powder should work fine. Just check the label of what ever you use for appropriate uses. It should say something like, "used in beverages and smoothies."

Looks great. Can’t wait to try it! Can you substitute monkfruit as sweetener?
Keto Cooking Christian
Thanks so much. A lot of people use monk fruit as a sub and it works just fine.
