Sunday Smoothies: Peanut Butter-Banana-Coconut with Soy Milk

Green Girl Goodies, October 2012

This smoothie is rich and delicious as well as healthy.  The fat content is significantly higher than most fruit and vegetable smoothies I have made in the past however the fat is plant based monosaturated fat, the “good” kind of fat.  Regardless, I think it is important to indulge on occasion!  The “So Delicious” dairy free ice cream is one of my favorite non-dairy ice cream options and it adds a nice creamy element to the smoothie.

Yield 2 large 22 oz servings or 4 small 11 oz servings

2 ea Bananas, medium

2 c Soy Milk, Vanilla

¾ c “So Delicious” Dairy Free Coconut Ice Cream, Vanilla Bean

2 tb Peanut Butter, Crunchy

2 tb Honey

-     Use a metal spoon to “cut” the bananas into small pieces.

 

-     Add the ice cream, soy milk, peanut butter and honey.  When adding the peanut butter and honey, do your best to place it in the middle so it doesn’t get stuck to the sides of the blender.

 

 

 

-     Blend well and split servings accordingly.
