Banana Almond Flax Smoothie

This Banana Almond Flax Smoothie is like dessert for breakfast and I just can't get enough of it! Once you try this smoothie you're going to have to keep an extra stock of frozen bananas on hand at all times, chances are it's a smoothie you'll want to make regularly. Its' perfectly creamy, incredibly hearty, and it has a deliciously nutty flavor that's perfectly complimented by the sweet bananas.
