Almond Joy Smoothie

AJ smoothie

It’s obvious that smoothies are a regular thing in my diet but sometimes I want to change it up from a super duper healthy smoothie to more of a sweet, kinda like a milkshake if I use my imagination smoothie.  Enter the Almond Joy Smoothie!

Ingredients:

1 cup coconut milk, unsweetened Vanilla (or whatever type you have)

1 Tablespoon almond butter

1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/4 cup coconut flakes

1 banana, frozen

Handful of greens (definitely optional!)

Directions

Mix everything until well blended in high powered blender.

Some Suggestions:

-You could use a fresh banana but I would also throw in some ice cubes so it gets cold.

-I bet cocoa powder or really anything chocolate flavored could be substituted for the chocolate chips.  The main thing is to have coconut, almond, and chocolate flavors so it is just like an Almond Joy.

Of course, it would be a much prettier color without the greens.  But my thought is why wouldn’t you put greens in a smoothie since you can’t even taste them?  The almond butter covers the green taste right up, I promise!
