Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie Recipe
Our family’s favorite dessert flavor combination is chocolate and peanut butter together, and putting chocolate and peanut butter together in a smoothie is a great way to get protein and a little treat all at the same time! Let me add, we definitely don’t mind eating our chocolate and peanut butter either like in homemade peanut butter cups, or in chocolate peanut butter no bake cookie bars. Yum! I digress…
Jonathan came up with this smoothie creation, and it ended up being more like a milkshake, a real dessert smoothie. So yummy, yet healthy!
A bonus in this smoothie is that you get some natural protein sources, not only in the peanut butter, but also in the almonds and almond milk.
Another bonus is iron with that spinach. So good for you…and no one will know.
I like to bite into the whole chocolate chip, so when I make this with chocolate chips now, we kept them out until the very end.
