C'mon... Ask me why I love smoothies so much (especially lately)?
Well, they are creamy, dreamy, quick, nutritious meal PERFECT for busy mornings - and oh boy do I have plenty of those lately. Remember my story from the last week? Well, my life is STILL pretty hectic. I'm now looking not only easy lunch solutions but easy breakfast solutions too.
Smoothies are the easiest thing you can make in the morning. And among healthiest things you can have for breakfast too. Of course, if the smoothie is well balanced, packed with nutrients, and all the HEALTHY goodies - like this deliciousness over here. That's why I LOVE SMOOTHIES.
Since berries are now in season, I toss them in about everything sweet I do. Berry Breakfast Oatmeal Bars and Blueberry Chia Smoothie. How about Blueberry Pancake Casserole? YES! ALL these are packed with beautiful berries. ALL perfect for mornings. Same as this delightful Strawberry Peanut Butter Smoothie.
It is super simple, thick, filling and so gorgeous. And you'll be surprised how HEALTHY it is too. Just read on!
Strawberry Peanut Butter Smoothie is one of those smoothies that is extra delicious - because strawberry and peanut butter are like the greatest combo EVER!
It's like peanut butter & jelly in a cup! Nutty peanuts and fresh fruity strawberry flavor pair sooo good together. Can this smoothie be any better?! Well, yes it can. Just keep reading...
Not only this smoothie is heavenly smooth, thick and super tasty, but it's also very filling and so nutritious - packed with so many good healthy stuff - dietary fibers, ALL NATURAL plant-based proteins from peanut butter and flax seeds, rich in antioxidants from SUPERFOODS - strawberries and goji berries. Yumilicious!
To make this Strawberry Peanut Butter Smoothie I used frozen banana and of course sweet, vitamin-loaded strawberries. Strawberries gave the smoothie fruity freshness while ripe banana provided the smoothie with beautiful natural sweetness, so this smoothie has NO ADDED SUGARS whatsoever. Great right?! Also, frozen banana made the smoothie so creamy and thick - you can literally eat it with the spoon.
In addition to that, this smoothie is loaded with heart-healthy fats from nutty ALL NATURAL peanut butter. Peanut butter is a great source of unsaturated - healthy fats, fibers, and proteins + an excellent source of a whole range of vitamins and minerals. Cheers to PEANUT BUTTER!
To give this smoothie, even more, power, I added some MORE superfoods - flax seeds – loaded with anti-inflammatory omega-3, fibers good for our digestion, and beautiful proteins. Cheers to FLAX SEEDS too!
