If you’re anything like me, 2 p.m. rolls around and suddenly… you’re tired, hungry, and craving something sweet. Instead of grabbing whatever sugary snack is within reach, I started making this smoothie again—an old favorite from my 20s that I used to obsess over.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie-Shake Recipe
Ingredients
1 frozen banana
2 tbsp peanut butter
2 tbsp raw cacao powder
1 tbsp ground flax
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
~ 1 cup milk *of choice*
ice cubes (to your liking)
extra chocolate sauce, because why not …
Optional Add-ins:
✧ Protein boost: Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder (I love Tera’s Whey from Thrive Market!)
✧ Boost the Nutrition: Add collagen peptides or chia seeds for extra protein and omega-3s.
✧ Extra energy: Pairs perfectly with coffee for an added caffeine boost. Add ½ cup chilled coffee or espresso for a chocolatey energy boost.
✧ Swap it: Use kefir instead of Greek yogurt (~¼-⅓ cup) for gut health benefits.
Directions
Combine all ingredients in a high-speed blender - minus the chocolate sauce - add that around the glass, before pouring the smoothie in and enjoy =)
