A donut a day keeps the doctor away! Maybe not, but a donut every now and then sure does make us happy. ? Do-nut ditch those donuts. Instead, put a real live donut?yes you read that right? into a blender, add some protein, and you’ve got a delicious and macro-friendly shake ready to go. You guys, I know putting a donut in a blender sounds kind of weird, but trust me…it’s amazing. Try it for yourself!
The Powell Pack has put on our experimenting hats to see if blending donuts could really be a tasty thing! Do-nut worry, no Powell was harmed in the making of this video, but lots of delicious donuts were successfully blended. 😉
