Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 banana can be frozen - just add a little less ice
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2-3 dates depending on desired sweetness
  • 1/2-1 cup ice cubes (about 6-8 ice cubes)

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. Add more ice cubes if you like it thicker.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

MIX-IN IDEAS:
  • Dark leafy greens (like spinach and kale- their flavors are mostly masked by the sweet ingredients)
  • Protein powder (choose one that is unflavored and not sweetened)
  • Nuts and seeds (this would include other nut or seed butters)
  • Berries
  • Chia or flax seeds
 
MAKE IT NUT-FREE: Use coconut milk in place of the almond milk and sun butter instead of peanut butter.
