Ingredients For High Protein Peanut Butter Smoothie

• Peanut butter: There is no need for the powder. Without it, you should get about 20 grams of protein in one little cup. When grocery shopping, try to go for the container that carries the most grams.

• Banana—Frozen is the best way to enjoy this peanut butter smoothie. It helps to create that T-thick texture that we all love. However, it does not have much of a milkshake texture, which is good.

• Milk- Another great source of protein. You can go with whole, half, 2%, or even switch to almond. It’s your preference.

• Granola – I used vanilla granola to add fiber to help your digestive system.

• Honey is a natural energy source perfect for those hardcore gym sessions.
