What’s in a Chocolate Power Muscle Monkey Smoothie Bowl?
This smoothie bowl starts with a thick, creamy base of bananas that are loaded with nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants. To make it even creamier, we add peanut butter which supplies all three macronutrients – carbs, protein, and healthy fat. To make it even more muscle-y we add a scoop of vegan chocolate protein powder because chocolate, peanut butter, and banana is quite possibly the perfect flavor combination that ever existed! Don’t you agree?
- Frozen banana
- Peanut butter
- Chocolate vegan protein powder
