Instructions
For a regular smoothie just blend all ingredients together until smooth, sprinkle with a little more ground flax or chia and serve right away.
For a layered smoothie, first blend together frozen banana, ice cubes, milk, peanut butter powder, honey (optional), and ground flax or chia. Fill half of the mixture into a glass and set aside.
1 banana, ½ cup ice cubes, ¾ cup milk of choice, 3 tablespoons Naked PB peanut powder, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon ground flax
Add chocolate protein powder and cocoa powder to the remaining smoothie mix in the blender. Pulse a few times to combine, then carefully layer the 2 smoothie mixes into a serving glass. Pouring over the back of a spoon helps to create distinct layers.
1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
Sprinkle with flax meal or chia seeds and serve right away.
