Notes

  • I have a powerful blender that makes everything super liquid, so if I want it thicker I use less milk. If you have an older blender you may need more milk regardless. You know your machine, so blend accordingly. 
  •  If you use dates or almonds it might be a good idea to roughly chop them first. 
  •  If you are using frozen bananas or other frozen fruit, omit the ice.
  • Add protein powder for a higher protein smoothie
  • You can swap peanut butter if you prefer.
  • Feel free to add other fruits or even some greek yogurt.
