The year is 2009. Barack Obama had just been sworn into office. James Cameron dazzled the world with the visual spectacle Avatar. And Beyoncé dedicated an anthem to all the single ladies out there.
Here at BODi, we were introducing our own pioneering achievement — a first-of-its-kind nutrition shake that has changed the lives of millions of people over the past 15 years: Shakeology.
We’d finally cracked the code with a superfood shake that’s sourced with high-quality ingredients, packed with nutrients that people don’t get every day. Plus, it actually tastes good — not just in smoothies but in pancakes, protein balls, mug cakes, pies, and even ice cream (yeah, we went there).
Now, more than 400 recipes later, we’re still innovating and finding new and creative ways for you to enjoy your superfood nutrition. So in honor of the 15th anniversary of Shakeology, here are the 15 most popular Shakeology recipes of all time.
1. Chocolate Brownie Bites
These delectable brownie bites are easy to make and full of (not to mention covered!) with chocolate — who can resist that? Not us.
Our genius recipe developers made a few creative tweaks to make this Chocolate Shakeology recipe unique:
- A flaxseed “egg” helps bind all the ingredients together and has a neutral flavor so your tastebuds can focus all their attention on the chocolate!
- Black beans (you won’t taste them either, we swear!) help create the yummy brownie-dough texture.
