Blueberry, Banana, Peanut Butter & Kale Smoothie

I'm back on my smoothie game these days! They never disappoint and are super nutritious. Sometimes I get overwhelmed with all the possible options that I can blend together. I usually survey all the ingredients I have and just type them into google to find a recipe that incorporates them all. Smoothies are a great healthy breakfast or just a healthy afternoon snack. I probably have at least 3-4 smoothies a week, they're so easy to make, can be stored overnight and just so tasty!

Ingredients

• 1 medium banana, peeled (can be frozen)

• 1/2 cup mixed frozen berries (I just used blueberries)

• 1 tsp chia seeds

• 1 hefty tbsp natural peanut butter

• 1/2 cup almond milk (sweetened, unsweetened, vanilla, original...whatever you like)

• 2 cups fresh kale (or spinach)

Step 1: Place all the ingredients in the blender and blend until creamy. Add more almond milk or fruit to thin/thicken your smoothie to a consistency you like.

Step 2: Serve immediately, or cover and enjoy later!

My smoothie is a little more purple than yours may be because of my excessive use of frozen blueberries, but still delicious and nutritious. This batch made about 2 smoothies, but I opted to drink it all at once as my breakfast. The peanut butter and mixed kale kept me full for majority of my morning. I really enjoyed the taste of this smoothie, blueberries, with a hint of banana every now and again with the twang of peanut butter. The batch has about 360 calories, 15 g of fat, 48 g of carbs, and 11 g of protein, it's like a mean in a cup! Definitely going to be making this one again!

ENJOY!!
