Chocolate Strawberry Banana Smoothie​

Just another variation of the smoothie recipes I have already posted: ​Strawberry Pineapple Coconut Smoothie and Creamy Apple Cinnamon Smoothie. I usually order the Vanilla Bean Paleo Protein powder, but this time I decided to try out the Double Chocolate, which meant time to experiment with a new smoothie combination. I didn't want to get too crazy though, so I stuck to a strawberry banana combination. After hearing my mom slurp the end of the smoothie for five minutes, I think it's safe to say this was a delicious combo! I'll for sure be making this one again for her breakfast meal prep. If you make these ahead of time, throw them in the freezer, and just take one out the night before and put it in the fridge. By morning it is good to grab-and-go as a smoothie! 

Chocolate Strawberry Banana Smoothie
Ingredients:

• ½ cup coconut milk (I use SO Delicious Original Culinary Coconut Milk)
• ½ cup water
• ½ ripe banana, frozen 
• 2.5 ounces frozen fresh chopped strawberries
• 1 scoop Protein Powder (I used this Paleo Protein)

Directions:

1. Add all the ingredients to your blender. Place the lid on and puree (use the “smoothie setting” if your blender has one) until smooth and desired consistency is reached.
2. Serve immediately, or portion into freezer safe canning jars and store in the freezer for later use.
3. If desired, garnish with fresh strawberries.
4. Enjoy!
