Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 medium Ripe banana
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 1 scoop Sugar-free vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Peanut butter
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 5 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Place the unsweetened almond milk into the bottom of a blender, which helps ease the blending process.
Peel and add the ripe banana to the blender for natural sweetness and creaminess.
Add one tablespoon of chia seeds for a source of healthy omega-3 fatty acids and fiber.
Include one scoop of sugar-free vanilla protein powder to enhance the protein content of the smoothie.
Add one tablespoon of peanut butter for additional protein and a rich, nutty flavor.
Toss in one cup of fresh spinach leaves. Don’t worry, our smoothie will keep a beautifully vibrant green but won't taste like veggies!
Add five ice cubes to chill your smoothie and achieve a refreshing texture.
Blend all the ingredients on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the smoothie is smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated.
Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.
