Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another healthy breakfast or snack idea {see my oatmeal bites from a few weeks ago HERE} and stay tuned, I have another make ahead breakfast idea coming up that you won’t want to miss!

You may remember several weeks ago, we took Ella to Rehoboth Beach for her birthday {you can read that post HERE} and I found the most delicious “Healthy Elvis” smoothie. You also may recall my description of the smoothie: a peanut butter milkshake that’s actually healthy! Well, for the past few weeks, I’ve been craving that smoothie, so I decided to {attempt!} to recreate it. And although this smoothie was delicious and super healthy, it didn’t quite taste like the “Healthy Elvis.” I will keep tweaking the recipe to get something closer to the “healthy peanut butter milkshake” but in the meantime, I wanted to share this “mistake smoothie” that turned out not only to be yummy, but filling — making it the perfect breakfast in the car or afternoon snack.

Peanut Butter & Berry Breakfast Smoothie

{what you will need}
1 small container non-fat plain Greek yogurt {about 5-6 ounces}
1 cup frozen berries {I used mixed berries}
1/2 fresh banana
2 tablespoons powdered peanut butter {I used PB fit}
1/2 cup milk {I used almond milk}
Handful of spinach
Handful of ice cubes

{directions}
In a blender, place the ingredients in the following order {starting at the bottom}: milk, powdered peanut butter, frozen berries, Greek yogurt, banana, ice cubes and spinach. Blend until completely mixed and serve immediately.

There is definitely a strong peanut butter taste, but not enough to give the smoothie that taste of a creamy peanut butter milkshake. I’m going to keep working with the ratios and I will report back if I can find a way to recreate that delicious smoothie from Rehoboth Beach. In the meantime, this smoothie will definitely satisfy and keep you full all morning — I’m always looking for breakfasts like that! 

Thanks for dropping by and see you tomorrow for an all new Wednesday Wishes!
