During the summer everyone is looking for lighter meal options to help avoid being weighed down by heavy foods. Smoothies provide a great alternative. They are a cinch to throw together and the options are endless. While I like to do a mixture of fruits in the morning, I love palying around with other options for other meals or snacks. Peanut butter and bananas are a classic combination, and I love them combined in a smoothie. Salty, creamy peanut butter and an ice cold frozen banana come together to create a delicious, creamy smoothy that is sweet and so satisfying. Whether you’re making snacks for a crowd or a snack before you head out the door, smoothies are a great option and will please everyone of all ages!
