Banana Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie
Frozen bananas keep excellent in the freezer for up to a year. In this recipe, they act as both ice and a sweetener to make a creamy smoothie along with the classic flavor combination of peanut butter and chocolate. Opting for powdered peanut butter cuts down on the calories associated with nut butters without sacrificing the taste.
