Neighbor’s Flavors: Smoothies by Eastside’s Wellness Department

From Sara McLaughlin

This smoothie is decadent, filling, and packed with healthy fats, protein, and flavor. You will need:

1 Large Frozen Ripe Banana

1-2 Tbsp Cacao Powder, depending on how chocolatey you want it

1 scoop of Four Sigmatic Peanut Butter Protein Powder

2 tsp hemp seeds

1/2-1 cup of milk of choice (I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk. But if you use plain milk, add a tsp of vanilla extract as well)

optional add 1 tbsp of peanut butter or PB2 powder for extra peanutyness

Throw everything but the milk in a blender and add the milk ¼ cup at a time until you achieve desired consistency. Top with chocolate chips if you want to be really luxurious.
