- For a more intense flavor, you can try chocolate-peanut butter protein powder.
- Almond milk adds a nice flavor to this smoothie, but you could also use regular milk or any other kind of non-dairy milk you like.
Did you know that almond milk is lactose- and cholesterol-free and an excellent source of vitamin E? It’s also low in calories and high in fiber, making it a great alternative for those who are lactose intolerant or watching their calorie intake.
Furthermore, PB2 is a powdered peanut butter with 85% less fat than regular peanut butter. It’s also loaded with protein, making it a great addition to your diet. And, of course, banana is a fantastic source of vitamins and minerals, including potassium, magnesium, and vitamin C.
