My Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie Recipe
So pretty much anyone that knows me knows that I almost always have a smoothie for breakfast. Especially in high school and during college before everything was done online due to the corona virus, I found that is so much easier to quickly drink a smoothie before having to leave the house than to sit down and eat an entire cooked breakfast. I also for a period of time I just found food to be so unappetizing after first waking up, but smoothies would always hit the spot and give me energy throughout the day. In honor of this, I thought I would share my favorite smoothie that I pretty much have all the time. Obviously I like to switch it up, but this one is my go to & literally tastes like a milkshake!
Ingredients:
1 frozen banana
2 scoops of chocolate protein powder (Tera’s Whey is the brand I like to use)
1.5 tablespoons of peanut butter
3 spoons of hemp hearts (optional but a good source of protein and omegas)
Use 5-8 oz of any kind of plant milk that you like based on your preferred thickness or thinness (I used almond milk)
1 handful of ice
A sprinkle of cacao nibs (optional but adds a nice crunch element)
What to do:
Pretty self explanatory, but put all of the ingredient into the blender and enjoy! Super simple, but this is literally the best combination and is also a healthy way to start off the day.
