Chocolate, Nut Butter, Banana, Protein Smoothie

This is a high protein, healthy smoothie with anti-inflammatory properties. I use peanut butter which has no added sugar or salt as well as a low carb whey protein powder.

You can use any flavour protein powder you like. I've had great results with the following protein powder flavours: chocolate, vanilla, cookies and cream, and peanut butter.

5 minutes to make. Serves 1.

Ingredients:

• 1 medium banana, peeled

• 1 tbsp peanut butter or other nut butter

• 1 serving of protein powder (mixed with water or milk as indicated)

• 1/2 tsp raw honey or other sweetener

• 4 blocks of ice

• A pinch of cinnamon and ginger

Directions:

1. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

2. If a thinner consistency is desired, add a little bit of water.

3. Pour into a big glass and enjoy.
