PB&J Smoothie!

Happy Smoothie Sunday, Blogosphere!

This is probably one of the most delicious smoothies I have ever tried. It does not have any protein powder supplementation in it, so it is easily ingredients the average person should have on hand in their pantry or fridge. If you are not one to usually have Greek yogurt around, you could substitute milk or other yogurt, but I adore Greek yogurt for its health benefits and always have it in the fridge. Plain is the way to go, as it has a very low sugar content which is hard to come by in this day and age!

This is apparently one of Katy Perry's favorite smoothies, and I can see why. Delicious, creamy, nutritious, and easy to make and have ready in a few minutes!

Feel free to play around with the ingredients in this smoothie recipe. To lower the carb content while also upping the protein, increase the amount of dairy and cut the banana in half. I also froze my banana ahead of time to make it colder and more creamy!
