Recipe – Make-Ahead Green Peanut Butter Smoothie from Gena Hamilton

Thank you Gena for sending us this really simple and delicious-sounding smoothie that would be a great pick-me-up in the middle of the day when you just need a little boost of energy! And so simple to make a batch to freeze for the whole week.

Below is my favorite mid-morning snack during remote work. It is a great way to sneak i n some greens.

Ingredients:

1 container of prewashed baby spinach

1 cup frozen blueberries

1 cup frozen pitted cherries

3 bananas, peeled and diced

6 tablespoons of peanut butter

Almond milk

Ice cubes

Steps:

Divide spinach, blueberries, cherries, bananas and peanut butter evenly into six 500ML glass mason jars.

Freeze until ready to use.

When ready to blend, add the contents of one mason jar to the blender with 1 cup almond milk and 4 ice cubes.

Tip: The riper the banana, the more banana-flavor and sweeter the smoothie.
