ABC (Almond Banana Cinnamon) Protein Smoothie
Author:
Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup unsweetend almond milk
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • organic ground cinnamon, to taste*
  • organic ground cloves, to taste*
  • organic ground ginger, to taste*
  • 1 tsp. flax seed oil (Here's my favorite.)
  • 1 Tablespoon ground almond butter
  • ½-3/4 frozen banana
  • 2-3 pieces frozen pineapple chunks
  • *Ground spices can be adjusted according to your taste preference. My ratio is about 4:1; 4 x as much cinnamon as ginger and cloves. I suggest starting out with a few shakes of each and taste as you go. You can always add more of one according to your preference.
Instructions
  1. Note: This smoothie yields the best consistency if blended in stages.
  2. In a high-powdered blender, add almond milk, protein powder, and ground spices and blend until combined.
  3. Add in flax seed oil and ground almond butter; blend.
  4. Add in frozen banana and frozen pineapple chunks; blend well and serve immediately.
