    PB&J SMOOTHIE

    MAKES: 2 servings · PREP TIME: 10 minutes

    When I switched to a low-carb lifestyle, smoothies were one of the things I missed the most. There is something so comforting and refreshing about drinking a smoothie. Back in my high-carb days, I used to order a 32-ounce peanut butter and jelly smoothie at our local smoothie shop. Looking back on it, I don’t even want to know how many grams of carbs and sugar those smoothies had. Thankfully, I’ve got a much healthier alternative these days.

    INGREDIENTS

    •1 cup frozen mixed berries

    •2 tablespoons peanut butter powder

    •1 scoop dairy-free keto vanilla protein powder

    •1½ cups unsweetened coconut or almond milk

    •Fresh berries, for garnish (optional)

    DIRECTIONS

    Put all the ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth and creamy. Divide between two 10-ounce glasses to serve. Garnish with fresh berries, if desired.

    tip: This recipe is marked as nut-free because, technically speaking, a peanut is a legume, not a nut. However, if you have a peanut allergy, feel free to substitute almond butter, to taste, for the peanut butter powder.
