At the moment, my favourite snacks are Raw Bites (for when I'm on-the-go) and smoothies (when I'm working at my desk) they're quick to make and super delicious! Whilst the Blueberry Banana Smoothie was previously my favourite - a new smoothie has taken over. It's super thick, creamy and oh so delicious - not to mention healthy!
This smoothie was actually made on one of those very busy days, where I quickly blended it up in my magic bullet in between emails and phone calls, quickly took some pictures and drank it whilst punching out a press release for a client.
Perfect for Fit Foodies and very very cool!
Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie serves 1

low fat, gluten free, healthy, vegan, dairy free
1C unsweetened almond breeze or milk of choice
1/2 large banana, fresh or frozen (a frozen banana will make a thicker smoothie)
1-2 tbsp peanut butter or peanut flour*
Add all of your ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
You may need to mix the peanut butter/flour around as it tends to stick to the outside - but it should come together easily.
Pour into a glass or enjoy straight from the blender, lazy girl style ;)
*When I'm making a smoothie just for a snack, I tend to use peanut flour (which I also find makes it thicker and more peanutty) but if you're looking for a more meal-type smoothie, use peanut butter!
But tell me, what's your favourite quick and healthy snack?

I just tried putting Peanut Flour in my smoothie this weekend (it was a blueberry chocolate smoothie + the peanut flour) and it was so good!
ReplyDeleteYummm! Peanut flour is the best - and I actually make a similar combination and it is divine! Xx
