Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Smoothie

Not that I needed anymore chocolate after yesterday's chocolate overload, but after spending the day practicing Melissa Cross' The Zen of Screaming my voice is a little sore and could use some yummy cold goodness.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Smoothie
1c Cup Peanut Butter
2c Vanilla Almond Milk
2 Frozen Bananas
½c Hershey's Chocolate Syrup
<¼c chunked chocolate (left overs from the melted chocolate I used for chocolate covered strawberries last night)
a few ice cubes (we used 6.  Probably could have used more)

I must say.... it is DELICIOUS!  Reminds me of the "Protein Packer" smoothie I used to get at my favorite smoothie place, Pulp, back in Ohio.  We used to get it after work outs at the gym, so off for a walk I go!

Fruity Smoothie

After dinner, my hubby and my furry children usually go for a nice hour long walk along the gulf.  I had some left over fruits from previous recipes and decided to make us a post-walk smoothie!

(I decided to include my awesome $1.50 garage sale blender in the photo because I had already drank most of my smoothie out of my glass.  lol)

Fruity Smoothie:
¾ can frozen orange juice
1 can of water from the frozen orange juice can
½c frozen blueberries
2 extra ripe bananas
4 strawberries
8 ice cubes

Blend 'em up and let 'er go!  The beauty of smoothies is you can add almost anything to them and they will be wonderful.
