High in protein and healthy fat (use a natural peanut butter, that contains no additives) this hunger curbing banana smoothie makes for a hearty breakfast, lunch, or after-workout boost. Smoothies are an excellent go-to food to replenish the body after a tough workout.

If you are dairy-free just swap out the milk and yoghurt for a non dairy alternative. Try other nut butters such as cashew butter (my favourite). You can add ice, to make a cooler, thicker smoothie.

Nourishing you…

Banana – adds additional fiber, as well as potassium, manganese, and vitamin B6

Yogurt – adds probiotics, which promotes healthy digestion because of the flora that it encourages in the digestive tract and provides calcium and extra protein.

Cinnamon – helps control blood sugar and stimulates brain activity

Honey – high in antioxidants and immune-boosting compounds

Peanut butter – Vitamin E, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B6, Folate, Magnesium, Copper, Manganese. There’s also a decent amount of Vitamin B5, Iron, Potassium, Zinc, and Selenium in peanut butter.
