Sometimes a smoothie without bananas is what you need. Mixed berries and peanut butter — it tastes like a PB&J sandwich, only better. One of the only protein shakes you actually look forward to making.

Notes
Berry swaps: Works with any berry combination — limit to 1–2 types for the best flavor.
Nut butter swaps: Whole peanuts, almond butter, or mixed nut butter all work.
Pro tip: Make this right after making nut butter — no need to clean the container first.
Storage: Best right away. If needed, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.

This was a definite winner for me! Love PB&J and this shake was very filling. I was able to have it very early in the morning before work and was full right up until lunch.

I swapped out the PB for PB2 to save myself some calories!

What kind of protein powder do you use? Any recommendation? I have never bought any and would love some guidance as I’m sure some are better than others.

Is your almond milk sweetened?

If you use peanuts do you also use 1 tbsp? Are they unsalted?

I’m going to try this recipe once I get my Vitamix.
Thank you!

Can you add egg whites as an addition to your protein shake, if you are also using protein powder? Or will you explode from protein overdrive?

  Go for it. Just listen to your body afterwards.

  Never tried pb2 — usually prefer whole food versions if I can get it.
