Mean Green Peanut Protein Smoothie

Yup. Another smoothie recipe. A note on this one: this smoothie as written is not sweet. If you like your peanut butter sweet, add a little honey or maple syrup. I happen to love the taste of peanuts, so I was happy with the savory leaning.

Gluten-free, paleo

I’m happy to have completed the course I was taking, but sad it’s over.
