RECIPE: Almond Energy Smoothie

Even though it was rather cold today I still wanted a smoothie. We're out of spinach, so I decided to try something similar but different. I found this recipe for an Almond Energy Smoothie a while back, so today was the day to give it a try.

Easy Energy Almond Shake
Serves 2

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups almond milk, vanilla flavor
2 large frozen bananas, ripe (room temperature bananas will do, but increase the ice to 1 cup. I did.)
2 Tbsp almond butter
1/2 cup ice
1/4 tsp cinnamon
garnish: roasted almonds

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place all ingredients in a high power blender. Blend on high until smooth and thick.

2. Pour into glasses and garnish with roasted almonds.
