Peanut Butter Chocolate Smoothie
My ideal pick-me-up breakfast includes coffee, chocolate and nut butter. Turns out, this Peanut Butter Chocolate Smoothie has all three. For mornings when you need a boost, this easy chocolate smoothie will happily stand in the gap.
Lately I’ve been using avocado in both sweet and savoury dishes. These nutritious fruits are nutrient dense and lend a luscious creaminess to desserts, smoothies and this addictively good frosting. I’ve also added a shot of my daily brew, (Nespresso Purple) and protein powder. If you don’t have protein powder, these smoothies have more than enough going for them, so just leave it out. Omit the coffee is you prefer a caffeine-free version, but the mocha-chocolate combination is really good. Finish with a handful of berries, a few mini tahini bliss balls and something chocolatey like cocoa nibs or chopped chocolate.
Side note : You can find the recipe for my cashew tahini bliss balls Here

What a scrumptious recipe. I would definitely try it out instead of cooked breakfast.
