Some days are jam packed and I find myself at my computer instead of taking a meal break. Today was one of them and I was flagging by midafternoon, this guilty pleasure smoothie helped with some of the rough edges -- although it doesn't have anything in it to be guilty about, it just feels so decadent. Bonus - after I had this midafternoon I was pumped enough to hike up and visit the neigh-bors.
Guilty Pleasure Afternoon Pick Me Up
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup cold coffee (or 1 cup cold water + instant coffee)
- 1 cup frozen bananas
- 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter
DIRECTIONS

Here's another favorite - Spice blends are so much fun, I like the Tea Masala paired with pumpkin.
Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

I like this guide from Prevention Magazine for mixing and matching, although my smoothies tend to stray from its suggestions.
