Notes

"The classic combination of bananas and peanut butter is reworked in this smoothie. The banana contributes potassium and fiber, and the nut or seed butter adds protein. The chocolate makes it a little more 'fun,' but feel free to make it without the cocoa powder if you or your kids prefer." — Jessica Fisher

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup crushed ice
    1 small banana, broken into chunks
    1/2 cup milk
    1 tablespoon natural unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 tablespoon peanut butter or other nut or seed butter of your choice

Directions

  1. Place the ice, banana, milk, cocoa powder, and nut or seed butter in the blender cup or pitcher.
  2. Blend until very smooth.
