Happy Fri-YAY !!!

Here is a special recipe for all the peanut butter lovers out there! I made myself this YUMMY Healthy Girl Peanut Butter Bliss Shake this morning after my workout AND I am about to deliver a takeaway to my handsome hubby too!

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons of chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons of rolled oats
• 2/3 cup of almond milk/filtered water
• 1 medium fresh/frozen banana (your choice)
• 1 tablespoon of natural/no added salt or sugar peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon of raw cacao powder (you can substitute this with chocolate whey/pea protein powder, carob powder or good quality cocoa powder)
• 1 teaspoon of raw honey *optional
• Coconut shavings for topping

Method:

1. Place your chia seeds and oats into a glass jar. Add your almond milk/water and stir together well.
2. Close the glass jar and put into the fridge to soak overnight or for a couple of hours (this allows the mixture to become chilled and for the chia seeds to thicken up).
3. Remove the glass jar from the fridge and place contents into a blender. Add your peanut butter, banana, honey and cacao powder. Blend all ingredients until smooth.
4. I usually prefer my smoothies to be a little thicker but if you want yours to be a bit thinner add some more water or almond milk until you reach your desired consistency.
5. Top with some coconut shavings.
6. ENJOY!
