After an afternoon lounging by the pool on a raft with my good friend, I needed to whip up a quick after-school snack that was both healthy and tasty! This turned out to be perfect as my oldest came in drenched as her school’s a/c broke today!
This recipe is easy and you can add or subtract what you have or don’t wish to use.
Into the blender/Vitamixer…
2 bananas (ripe)
1 scoop of protein powder (vanilla)
1 cup of Chobani vanilla yogurt
1 cup of frozen low fat ice cream – Mint Chocolate
8 ice cubes
1 to 1.5 cups of Almond Milk – vanilla (you may need more if the mixture is too thick)
1 tablespoon of chia seeds
2 tablespoon of chopped up fresh mint leaves
Blend and pour into your glasses, place a cute straw in the glass and watch it disappear!

Love finding new smoothie recipes- and I never thought of putting mint leaves- or any herb!- into the mix. Must try this.
Digging the ball jars and the patterned tea towel underneath as well
Thanks Christy!! It is so good

Don’t happen to know how many calories this is do you? Sounds amozing!
I don’t have it but you can certainly plug the ingredients into a calorie computer and come up with it.
