Make the Night Before
Stir these together in the evening and let the fridge do the rest. In the morning, grab a spoon.
Chocolate Chia Overnight Oats
A few minutes with a jar tonight means no cooking tomorrow. Rolled oats, chia seeds, and Chocolate Shakeology go into a 16-ounce jar with almond milk, cinnamon, and cacao nibs. Chill it for at least an hour, or leave it overnight. Slice banana on top just before you eat. Each serving has 25 grams of protein and 431 calories, according to the Chocolate Chia Overnight Oats recipe.
Chocolate Chia Parfait
Layers give this breakfast a little more polish than a bowl of oats. The base is a chocolate chia pudding made with Chocolate Shakeology, almond milk, and chia seeds, set in the fridge for an hour or overnight. Greek yogurt and fresh blueberries go on top. Add those layers right before you eat, as the Chocolate Chia Parfait recipe suggests. A parfait comes in at 30 grams of protein.
Cook in the Morning
These need a pan, an oven, or a microwave. The muffins take the longest, and you can bake them ahead for the next few days, or freeze them.
Chocolate Pancakes
No flour goes into these pancakes. Chocolate Shakeology and baking powder stand in for a dry mix, while an egg and almond milk turn it into batter. Drizzle maple syrup on top once they come off the pan. The recipe makes one serving and is ready in about 10 minutes, which leaves room for it on a weekday.

Peanut Butter Cup Oatmeal
Chocolate and peanut butter land together here in a warm bowl of oats. Rolled oats simmer in water, then almond milk, Chocolate Shakeology, and peanut butter get stirred in. It’s ready in about 10 minutes. A serving has 23 grams of protein. Make the High-Protein Peanut Butter Cup Oatmeal when the weather turns cold.
Double Chocolate Chip Muffins
Bake a batch on Sunday and breakfast is covered for the next few days. Banana, eggs, Greek yogurt, and almond milk form the batter, with three scoops of Chocolate Shakeology and chocolate chips for the double chocolate. The recipe makes 9 muffins, or 3 servings, and is ready in about 25 minutes. Warm leftovers in an oven, toaster oven, or air fryer instead of the microwave, as the Double Chocolate Chip Muffins recipe advises.
Chocolate Mug Cake
On a cold morning, a warm cake you can eat from the mug is hard to beat. An egg, unsweetened applesauce, Chocolate Shakeology, and a few chocolate chips get stirred together right in the mug. Microwave it for two to three minutes. The whole thing is ready in about five minutes. The Chocolate Shakeology Mug Cake recipe lists 22 grams of protein per serving.
Blend and Go
Short on time and holding a travel cup, start here. All you need is a blender and five minutes.
Zucchini Bread Shake
Think of zucchini bread, poured into a glass. A cup of frozen zucchini blends with banana, almond butter, cinnamon, ice, almond milk, and Chocolate Shakeology. It’s ready in about five minutes and has 21 grams of protein. Pour the Zucchini Bread Shake into a to-go cup and head out the door.
Recipes You Can Make Ahead
These keep well, based on the storage notes on each recipe card:
- Chocolate chia overnight oats: refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
- Chocolate chia parfait: refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
- Double chocolate chip muffins: refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat in an oven, toaster oven, or air fryer, not the microwave.

Pick Any Shakeology Flavor
Every recipe here calls for Chocolate Shakeology, but think of that as a starting point. Most of these breakfasts are flexible, so another flavor will still give you good results. Use the bag you already have in the pantry, and try a new flavor the next time you make your favorite.
