This is a super healthy and delicious snack when you need a a little pick-me-up! My wicked awesome friend Cory told me about this, and I just had to try it! I get snacky, and that can be a dangerous time where I can easily make the wrong food choices. This is sure to help you stay on track and get after those health and fitness goals!

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 TBSP peanut butter
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • Milk of your choice (I prefer almond milk) to add to create desired consistency

Just mix the first 3 ingredients together, and add milk until creating the desired consistency. Enjoy!!

Happy eating!

Warmly,

Dani

GREEN Chocolate Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie Recipe!

On By Dani Sanusi FitnessIn fitness, nutrition, recipe, smoothieLeave a comment

Nutrition is just as, if not more important, than all the hours you put in the gym. The best way to recover quickly and get the most out of your workout is to take care of your body by feeding it quality foods. You need that protein to rebuild those muscles, and good carbohydrates to refuel you to keep going on with your day. I do believe that you are what you eat! With that said, here is my recipe for an awesome recovery smoothie!

Combine in a blender:

  • 1/4 c nonfat greek yogurt
  • 1 c cold water
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 1 TBSP peanut butter
  • 2 scoops of Complete Greens powder (it tastes like an orange creamsicle and has several servings of vegetables in just two teeny tiny scoops! To purchase, click here: http://bit.ly/1nbcCiC)

Blend all the ingredients together.
THEN add:

  • 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder (I use this stuff, it’s delicious! http://bit.ly/1a6u5kc), and blend. Make sure you wait to add your protein powder until AFTER blending this all together. It really comes together perfectly if you add it at the very end. Trust me! 🙂 Then, drink up!!
