Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie

This is one of my favourite smoothies. It is full of protein and great for breakfast or any time of day. It definitely reminds me of a frapucinno, just with out all the carbs and sugar!

 
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup un-sweetened chocolate almond milk* (I use Almond Breeze)
  •  1 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
  • 2 packets of Splenda
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 scoop un-sweetened soy protein powder (I use Gen-Soy)
  • Dash of heavy cream
  • 4 ice cubes
  • 1/4 cup water

 
Directions:
Put all ingredients in a blender for a minute and enjoy! I used my magic bullet to make this, which i highly recommend because there is much less clean up and then you have your smoothie already made in a ready to go container.
Makes 1 serving

* If you can't find unsweetened chocolate almond milk you could use unsweetened almond milk, soy milk or hemp milk and just add half a teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder
