PB & J Smoothie
The perfect PB & J flavor in smoothie form. You can’t taste the banana but it adds oomph, creaminess, and great sweetness to the smoothie. Canilla Greek yogurt also adds thickness and creaminess. The smoothie gets its jelly flavor from berries rather than actual jelly. And of course don’t be skimpy on the peanut butter.

Ingredients
- one medium ripe banana frozen into chunks if possible
- one 6-ounce container vanilla Greek yogurt I use Trader Joe’s 0% Fat Vanilla Bean Greek Yogurt
- about 2/3 cup frozen berries i.e. raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, or similar (I use Trader Joe’s Berry Medley)
- heaping 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- about 1/2 cup milk plus more as necessary for consistency and texture (I use unsweetened cashewmilk)
- ice cubes if necessary to taste (I don’t need them because my fruit is frozen)
- optional sweetener to taste i.e. Splenda, granulated sugar, stevia, honey, agave, etc.
Instructions
- Add the banana, yogurt, frozen berries, peanut butter, and 1/2 cup milk to the canister of a blender. Blend on high power and drizzle in additional milk, as needed, until desired smoothie texture and consistency is achieved. Optionally add ice or sweetener if desired. Serve immediately.
