Smoothie Bowl

  • 3/4 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup almond milk

  • 1.5 Tbsp PB Fit powder (or regular natural peanut butter!)
  • 1 cup baby spinach leaves, loosely packed as many as you want - you won't taste it!

Recipe Notes

  • I'm usually a proponent of whole real foods for everything, but when I'm looking to get a little extra protein in my smoothie without extra calories and fat, PB Fit powder is my go-to. It's made from real roasted pressed organic peanuts, so it tastes just like peanut butter -- and way better than any other protein powder I've tried.
  • This recipe tastes great with 1 Tbsp of natural peanut butter too.
  • Granola is notorious for high (added) sugars so if you're topping with granola, pay close attention to the food labels. I look for a granola with 6 grams of sugar per 1/4 cup serving (about the lowest I can find). Bear Naked Vanilla Almond is my current favorite, and Trader Joe's has a seasonal coconut one that's also addictively delicious.
