Chocolate banana almond butter milkshake. This smoothie can be had for breakfast, but is honestly so good it could easily pass as a milkshake for dessert. It's got over 20 g each of protein and healthy fats, 10 g of fiber, sweetness from the banana, and creaminess from the nut butter!

- 1/2 frozen medium (55 g) Banana, overripe
- 1/2 cup (120 g) Unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 2 tbsp (32 g) Almond butter
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) Almond extract
- 2 tbsp (10 g) Cocoa powder
- 1/8 tsp (0.25 g) Cloves, ground
- 1/2 scoop (15 g) Whey protein powder, unflavored

1. A few hours (or day) before, add half a banana to an airtight bag, and store in the freezer

2. Blend the banana, nut butter, and milk until creamy in a small blender or electric food chopper

3. Add in the rest of the ingredients, and blend until fully combined

4. Add some monk fruit if you want it sweeter

5. Add some mint extract for a subtle mint flavor if you like, but be careful not to add too much

6. Transfer to a medium glass and serve
