This chocolate banana smoothie is choc full of tasty healthy protein, vitamins and minerals. I often have this smoothie for breakfast since it’s a good way to start the day to keep you full and energized.
This chocolate banana smoothie has roughly about 14-26 grams of protein depending on the protein powder you use. I like to use collagen protein because it has so many great health benefits. I love to add coconut oil since it supports a healthy metabolism while maca helps with hormones.
I also use these handy stainless steel straws to avoid plastic (because a smoothie is just better through a straw in my opinion!) and this cute mason jar glass!
