    Chocolate Peanut Butter SmoothieJust 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.

    Chocolate Peanut Butter SmoothieIt’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.

    Chocolate Peanut Butter SmoothieFeel 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!

    Description

    A quick and easy Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie that’s healthy and will keep you full for hours. 


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk)
    • 2 tablespoons your favorite nut butter (any kind)
    • 1/2 frozen sliced banana (can use 2–3 pitted dates instead)
    • 2 tablespoons raw cacao powder (can also sub for 1 scoop chocolate protein powder)
    • 1 scoop unflavored protein powder (I use Vital Proteins collagen)
    • 1 handful fresh spinach
    • 2 teaspoons chia seeds (optional)
    • 1 handful ice

    Instructions

    1. Add all ingredients into a high powdered blender and blend on high for 20-30 seconds until smooth. Feel free to use less milk if you want your smoothie a little thicker. Adding the chia seeds will help keep you full longer.

      This is the first collagen smoothie I’ve tried that didn’t have that weird collagen aftertaste! Perfect for my sweet tooth. Thanks!

      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.
