Equipment
- 1 blender high speed if possible
Ingredients
- 1 cup non-dairy milk, use soy milk for more protein
- 1 cup frozen zucchini pieces
- 1 large frozen banana cut into pieces
- 1 tablespoon nut butter
- ½ scoop vanilla protein powder or more frozen banana
Instructions
- The day before you make this smoothie, make sure to cut and freeze some zucchini and ripe banana.
- Into your blender, starting with the non-dairy milk, add in all of the ingredients.
- Blend until smooth, using a tamper to press everything down into the blades. If you don't have a high speed blender or a tamper, add in more non-dairy milk as needed until everything is well blended and smooth
- Divide between two glasses and sprinkle with cinnamon if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- To disguise the green color from the zucchini, add in a tablespoon of cocoa powder. It also makes this smoothie nice and chocolatey!
- To bulk up the protein, use peanut butter and soy milk.
