Chocolate Banana and Peanut Butter Shaklee 180 Smoothie

Here is another another one of my favorite smoothies. I honestly should write an e-book of all of the different smoothie recipes that I have. Maybe it is just me but I love the fact that you can turn some of your favorite foods into amazing smoothies.

Today I had a peanut butter chocolate covered banana smoothie. This is everything that I love in a cup! It is kind of like desert for breakfast not to mention it is filled with protein and keeps me full for hours.

All you are going to need is:

• 180 Chocolate Smoothee Mix

• 8 oz. non-fat milk or low-fat soy milk

• 1 tbsp. natural, creamy peanut butter

• 1/2 medium banana

• 4-6 ice cubes

Blend until creamy.

I am personally a smoothie lover. Not just because they helped me lose 40 lbs. but because it helped me turn my life around and gave me my life back. But you can read more of my story here.

What is your favorite smoothie recipe? I would love to give it a try and let you know what I think.

The Perfect Afternoon Snack–Ants on a Log

There are so many days where I find myself walking over to the fridge in between lunch and dinner. I don’t want to eat a big meal and I don’t keep chips or other processed food in the house, so it forces me to eat healthy snacks. Isn’t that ingenious idea? This is by far one of my favorite snacks to have. The crunchiness of the celery, the sweetness of the raisins and the creamy and saltiness of the peanut butter. This truly is a delicious treat. Did I mention the protein in the peanut butter helps to keep me full until dinner time?

All you need is:

Celery

Peanut Butter

Raisins

If you like these three ingredients and you have never had a chance to try this healthy delight, I would suggest giving it a try. You can’t go wrong.

I am always looking for new healthy snacks. Would you mind sharing your all time favorite healthy snack with me… please?
