Ingredients/ Equipment:
- Blender
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla soymilk
- ¾ cup sliced frozen banana
- ½ cup reduced-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter
Instructions:
- Combine soymilk, banana, yogurt, cocoa powder and peanut butter in a blender; blend until smooth.
Ingredient Swaps to Try
- Try any plant-based or dairy milk. Any milk will work for this smoothie, so feel free to swap the soymilk for almond, cashew or other plant-based milk. Dairy milk is also a great swap, but whichever milk you choose, make sure it’s unsweetened.
- Use plain yogurt or plain plant-based yogurt. Greek yogurt will make the smoothie ultra-creamy and also packs plenty of protein. However, if you prefer regular yogurt, that will work too, or you can skip dairy yogurt altogether and opt for a plant-based yogurt instead.
- Swap in another nut butter. The peanut butter in this recipe can be subbed out for any other nut or seed butter. Choose a “natural” style nut or seed butter so that you’re getting just the nut or seed, without any added trans fats, oils or added sugar.
