Protein Green Smoothie

June 29, 2014

A satisfying, delicious and nutritious smoothie that starts your day off with a serving of vegetables. Fell of the wagon over the weekend? Get back on track with this green monster, it will set your week off on the right foot!

1 banana
2 big handfuls of spinach
1 scoop of chocolate protein powder (if you don't have protein powder you can sub 2 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder, however it will not be a protein smoothie)
1 tbsp of natural peanut butter (or another nut or seed butter)
Milk of choice, I don't measure. Use a little for a thick smoothie and more for a thinner smoothie. (I use unsweetened almond milk)
4 ice cubes
Optional: 1/8 tsp of pure peppermint extract for a mint chocolate protein smoothie.

In a high powered blender combine everything and blend until smooth. Pour into a glass and enjoy!
