Here's a wonderful treat. The Chunky Monkey is a pretty popular smoothie with many different recipe variations. Below you’ll find my preferred (healthy) version. As is the case with any smoothie recipe, feel free to play with the ingredients and proportions.
A quick tip on using frozen bananas in your smoothie. Peel and break your bananas into smaller chunks, and then place those chunks into a big zip lock baggie before tossing into the freezer. I usually do this for 4 to 5 bananas at a time.
Try doubling this for a quick and nourishing breakfast when you are on the go in the morning. You'll be scraping the bottom getting out every last morsel.
1/2 cup plant milk (I use almond)
1 medium banana
2 teaspoons peanut butter
1/4 cup Medjool dates, chopped
1 -2 tsp. or cocoa or carob powder
Combine all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth and creamy. Add more milk until you achieve the desired consistency.
