Calling all smoothie lovers!

This peanut butter banana smoothie with spinach is a staple in our house.

Seriously, this is one of my kids ALL TIME favorites.

They love peanut butter in anything and peanut butter and banana is a favorite snack. (I usually make little sandwiches with the banana slices and peanut butter in the middle.)

I also make a LOT of this whole wheat peanut butter banana bread.

But on days where I want to give them some extra veggies and a little nutrition boost, we do healthy green smoothies! (Or smoothie bowls.)

And this peanut butter banana smoothie with spinach is FULL of good stuff!

It’s loaded with a huge cup of spinach, plus bananas and peanut butter of course, plain Greek yogurt, some chia seeds for good measure, a splash of milk and honey to sweeten.

I usually make this smoothie for a healthy after-school snack — M requests it weekly these days! — but it also makes a great breakfast. It’s sure to fuel them for a busy morning!

Recipe Notes:

You’ll need to taste and adjust the amount you use for this recipe to get it to your desired level of sweetness. It will vary depending on how sweet your ripe bananas are and also how sweet you want it.

(And if your peanut butter has sugar or a sweetener in it, you may not need any honey at all.)

You could also substitute dates or maple syrup for the honey. Start with 1 pitted date or 1 teaspoon maple syrup and add more if you want to sweeten it up.

The chia seeds are optional. I like adding them for some extra nutrition but you can skip them if you don’t have any.

I add about 2 tablespoons of milk or so to get these to the right consistency for my kids to drink them with a straw. Do a splash at a time until it’s how you want it - thinner for a drinkable smoothie or thicker for a smoothie bowl. (And you can use any kind of milk here.)

Want some more fun topping ideas? Chia or hemp seeds, sliced bananas, a drizzle of peanut butter, fresh or frozen berries (we love strawberries with this) and granola. (My 5-ingredient peanut butter granola would be great here!)

So cheers for a healthy, wholesome peanut butter banana spinach smoothie and a new fun treat for my kiddos that I can feel good about.

Have a wonderful weekend!

XO,

Kathryn
