Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie (with Flaxseed Meal)

This Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie has Omega 3s since we added Flaxseed Meal, making for a healthy Dairy Free breakfast!

This morning I decided to make a Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie with Flaxseed Meal. I love smoothies for breakfast. I also love peanut butter and bananas, they just go together soooo good! I used to love eating toast with peanut butter and bananas on it, but since going Gluten Free I needed to find new ways to savor my peanut butter/banana addiction.

I try to mostly do smoothies for breakfast during the week. Smoothies are so healthy and if enough of the right ingredients go into it, it makes for a great meal that will fill you up until lunch time. Plus it’s super easy to make. This literally took me about 5 minutes to make.

I’m going to let you in on a little secret…I’ve been stuck in a smoothie rut though lately. I keep making the same Blueberry Oatmeal Smoothie every day, which I totally love, but I really need some variety.

So today I decided to revamp an old post of mine so I could redo the photos. The original photos for this smoothie were just awful. When I first started this blog I didn’t have a real camera. I was only using my iPhone to take all of my food pictures with…I know, what was I thinking?!

But it’s all I had, and they say the best camera is the one you have on you right?! Lets just say I have ALOT of photos/posts to redo, like a year and a half of them…”Sigh”. So if you come across some very small bad pictures in my old posts, please don’t judge. They will be fixed, eventually.

Ok let’s get back to this smoothie recipe!

I added Flaxseed Meal to this smoothie to get my Omega-3s in!

I use Bob’s Red Mill Organic Flaxseed Meal

Flaxseed Meal is so great, you can add it to smoothies, pancakes, muffins, cookies, and even use it as an egg substitute!

Here’s what I love about this smoothie:

-It’s rich and creamy peanut buttery taste

-You get plenty of fiber and Omega 3s by adding Flaxseed Meal

-It’s a great breakfast to have pre-workout, it will give you lots of energy!

-This only takes 5 minutes to make, woohoo!
