Peanut Butter and Banana Smoothie

I love peanut butter! What else can I say? I'm obsessed with it. Generally my breakfast consists of half a whole wheat peanut butter and banana sandwich. When I tire of that I reach for a Peanut Butter and Banana Smoothie.
 

The base for all my smoothie recipes include non fat milk and non fat Greek yogurt. If I'm feeling the need for additional protein, I include a scoop of unflavored soy protein.


Making smoothies in the Magic Bullet couldn't be any easier. You put all the ingredients into a cup, and process until smooth.

 
There are a couple of advantages to using the Magic Bullet blender. One, the container is also a cup, which results in less cleanup. Secondly, you make individual servings, thus, avoiding food waste.
