This Chocolate Dreamy shake is a thick and creamy chocolate shake that reminds me of a cross between a Wendy's Frosty and those old chocolate SlimFast shakes! It makes a whopping 5 cups to fill you up...or give you a little to share.
I don't find the okra to be very noticeable in this shake. It should be completely smooth with no discernable okra. A hint of earthiness is all! If the initial flavor surprises you, keep going. I find that I get used to it and don't notice anything a couple of swigs in.
The half and half is the only dairy in this. Feel free to omit for a dairy free shake, or try this chocolate shake made with frozen cauliflower (already DF) if you like the idea of hidden veggies but don't enjoy the okra.
This shake is technically a light THM S but would be a Fuel Pull if you omit the half and half. Low carb, sugar free

1 1/2 cups (200g) ice cubes
1 cup (120g) frozen chopped okra*

3 tablespoons collagen
2 tablespoons half and half
1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 1/2 tablespoons THM Super Sweet Blend

Steps
Add all the ingredients to a high powdered blender (I love my Vitamix!), adding the xanthan gum last. Blend well, swirling with the blender tamper if you have one, until the shake reaches critical mass and blends freely. It should be very thick and creamy. Taste and adjust the sweetness (or add another pinch of salt to bring out the flavor) and blend again. The shake should be completely smooth with no noticeable okra.

Henni on 2026-01-24 (5 stars): So funny! My Mom also dieted with SlimFast in the 90ies, but it didn’t really work because she ate bread with it. At least I was allowed to try one spoonful each time and I really liked it. So I should give your shake a try as well. 😊
