healthy eats: Peanut Butter Cup Power Smoothie

Thursday, February 13, 2014 5 Comments

Peanut Butter Cup Power Smoothie | @mamamissblog #healthyeats #CocoaVia #peanutbutter

When I think Valentines Day, I think chocolate – don’t you?!  The flowers aren’t important, the dinner isn’t that important – but hey, there better be some chocolate involved–  am I right?!  Buuuuut…I’d really rather not have chocolate added to my waistline.

So I’ve gone & done it – I’ve super charged my Peanut Butter Shake and turned it into a Peanut Butter Cup Power Smoothie!

I’ve filled it with some spinach, some flax, and my favorite – my chocolate CocoaVia® supplement.

Hey, I’m all about experimenting in the kitchen & trying to find healthier ways to make things.  Quite honestly, I mean for-reals, you can’t even taste the healthy stuff in this smoothie – you really can’t.  It’s a surefire way to sneak in some unsuspecting veggies!





For a fruiter version – here’s another yummy CocoaVia® recipe I just made recently too.

Peanut Butter Cup Power Smoothie

Peanut Butter Cup Power Smoothie - It's a surefire way to sneak in some unsuspecting veggies into your daily dose of chocolate.

Ingredients

1 cup fresh spinach
2 Tablespoons Flax Seed
2 frozen bananas, cut in thirds
2 tablespoons all natural* creamy peanut butter
1/8 cup chocolate chips
2 tablespoons special dark cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups vanilla almond milk
1 packet CocoaVia® Sweetened Dark Chocolate

Instructions

  1. Combine all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Add more almond milk to make the smoothie less thick.

Notes

*natural peanut butter = ingredients are only peanuts and 1% or less of salt. I like Smuckers.

***I prefer natural peanut butter without all the extra "stuff", but I'm positive regular ol' peanut butter would be just fine too :)

Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...not looking for flaws, but for potential.” - Ellen Goodman

🌟Potential.  YESSSSS 🙌🏻 I really like this quote 🌟

🧐🔍Seeing the positive first is a great mantra to have when we tend to automatically gravitate towards things that are negative.

🪄Here’s to a bright 2021 and a purposeful positive outlook. 🎉

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟 🤗 How did you HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟

🤗 How did you celebrate the arrival of 2021? 

🎲We played board games all night (cough cough surprise surprise 🤣) while munching on this charcuterie board.

🥳I surprised Eric & the kids by going all fancy for dinner last night. I wasn’t sure the kids would like the goat cheese (my favorite with fig spread 🤤) so I added some basic cheddar. But they LOVED it - I spread a little on one of the plain crackers with fig spread on top. So good! 

🍈Fig spread, goat cheese, & 2 large crackers is from @wholefoods 
🍇Grapes are from @costco (they have the best grapes!)
🪴Rosemary springs are from our garden.
🧀Everything else is from @traderjoes

Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!! Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!!🤗 (now if all my other mail I’m waiting on would arrive 🧐😩)

🦀🐙🐡I backed Open Ocean from @featherstonegames on @kickstarter this summer.  It’s so incredibly neat to see a game come together from start to finish.

🐠🐟🐬This game is beautiful I can’t wait to sit to play with the kids as they become budding marine biologists.

🧵Right before my dad passed last year, during my last visit with him, he gave me this giant bag of these vintage-y wooden spools knowing that I’d use them in my art classes or some other creative way. 

🧐As I was lesson planning this weekend the idea came to me when I peeked them in my wood craftin’ drawer - CHRISTMAS TREE!! 

✂️I also have a simpler idea in mind with no wire bending/cutting to try it in my art classes as a kinda ‘extra’ project for early finishers. Stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 I’m grateful th Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 
I’m grateful this Thanksgiving for my Dad ❤️ 

📖📖📖When he was alive I’m not sure I appreciated this book as much, but now that he’s gone it’s made me appreciate him even more that he took the time to catalog all our family recipes into two cookbooks for us to have. 

🦃🍁🍂This Thanksgiving without my mom joining us (she’s with friends this year) I was without her traditional treats like my favorite Pumpkin Cheesecake.

💪🏻So I attempted that (my first cheesecake EVER!) and Tussies (mini pecan pies) from scratch using my families recipes.  I’m so excited to dig in today and the whole time making them made me feel extremely #grateful for my Dad & all he did for his family. 💕
