Almond Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie

I went to a smoothie class and loved this recipe she shared with us. It has been so refreshing on the warm days we have been having lately. It is my new favorite. It is always a winner to combine chocolate and peanut. It is a chocolate frosty. This is a healthier way to enjoy it. :) Yum!

Ingredients:
1/4 C old fashioned oatmeal
1 to 1 1/2 frozen bananas (frozen makes it better) 
1 to 1 1/2 T peanut butter (natural)
1 T chocolate protein powder or cocoa powder with 1 T honey
1 C unsweetened almond milk
5-6 ice cubes
1 tsp vanilla * optional

Directions:
1. Pour it all in to the blender and blend till creamy. Enjoy!

    I just discovered using frozen bananas to make smoothies, it is like a delicious healthy shake. It is really good with Nutella too!

      Frozen bananas are a winner. They are what helps to make it creamy. :)
