So, it’s been a while since I shared a new breakfast shake. I didn’t realize it until I wrote this post on how to freeze bananas for the perfect smoothie, so I decided it was time to share my new favorite!
I’m pretty much obsessed with cherries right now. I buy them frozen, but you could totally buy them fresh if you want.
I’m not a huge fan of those chocolate covered cherry things with all the goopy cream, but I love chocolate and I love cherries and this smoothie fits the bill perfectly.
To make one serving of this Chocolate Covered Cherry Breakfast Shake, you need:
- 1 frozen banana
- 8-10 frozen or fresh cherries
- 1TBS nut butter – I use all natural Peanut Butter
- 1 Cup of milk – I use Almond
- 1-2 tsp cocao powder
Just pop everything in a blender and blend it well! I have a Ninja and I make this in my personal sized container. It’s amazing! It blends everything like magic, magic, magic.
If you are looking for the best blender for Smoothies, I can’t recommend this one enough: Ninja Blender with Single Serve Containers. {<= amazon affiliate link for easy online ordering}
So, so, so good!
Sometimes, I add more cocoa powder. The peanut butter tends to take over if you’re not careful, so try this out and adjust it to your own taste!
Do you love smoothies as much as I do? What’s your favorite kind?
