5 Minute Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie
Just like that it’s 2019. I thought about what I wanted to publish for my first new recipe of the year and I realized I wanted something easy, quick and delicious. I guess not much different than most of my other recipes, but this recipe is one that I make in my very own kitchen at least 3-4 times a week. It’s the perfect post workout or easy breakfast smoothie and you wanna know the best part? It tastes like a chocolate milkshake. Except it’s good for you! Yes, it’s possible.
It’s got everything you need to help keep you full for hours. And for all you sweet tooth people, I think you’ll be fully satisfied.
Feel free to use less liquid if you like your smoothies thicker. I think you’re gonna love this one and I can’t wait to see you try it!

This is the first collagen smoothie Iβve tried that didnβt have that weird collagen aftertaste! Perfect for my sweet tooth. Thanks!
I’ve got that sweet tooth as well! So glad you liked it Megan! Thanks for leaving a review!
Love this one! It tastes like chocolate milk and it is sooo filling. I added 1/4 cup oats instead of the protein powder.
With all the healthy ingredients that’s already in this smoothie, I don’t think the protein powder is necessary.
Then you don’t need to add it!
