Protein Chocolate Banana Smoothie

When the chocolate craving hits HARD, this chocolate banana smoothie is just what you need. This cacao smoothie has no refined sugars, and all the chocolate goodness is from pure cacao powder! It’s creamy, perfect for chocolate lovers, quick to make and naturally sweet. This dairy free protein shake is loaded with healthy fats and is the perfect refreshing drink for after a workout, on the commute to work, or just to enjoy on a hot day!

Why You’ll Love This Chocolate Banana Smoothie

• This dairy-free protein shake is smooth, creamy, and extra chocolatey. The protein powder and fats from the nut butter and avocado will keep you feeling fit and full. It’s the perfect on-the-go snack. Blend it before you leave the house and put it in a sealed jar and enjoy it while you commute.
• My favourite protein powder to use is VEGA. But use your favourite protein powder in this cacao smoothie. If you do use a flavoured protein powder it will most likely alter the taste of the smoothie. So I suggest either a natural flavour or vanilla.
• One of the best flavour combos of all time is peanut butter and chocolate. This chocolate banana smoothie has both of those ingredients and they truly steal the show. The cacao powder adds that chocolatey flavour and the peanut butter contributes to the creaminess and (obviously) the flavour of the smoothie. Don’t leave either of these ingredients out of this recipe!
