Happy Vegan Mofo 2014 Day 1: Chocolate Almond Granola Peanut Butter Banana Milkshake

Someone's happy about Vegan Mofo kick off.
Happy September y'all! Let's get this Vegan Mofo party started right eh?
My blog theme is Taste The Nom Nom- thirty days of delicious treasures: homemade, eating out, and otherwise. I'm well prepared and excited to make tongue buds overjoy with animal free delight!
In this delectable thick milkshake, frozen banana plays the "ice cream" part. I used Cascadian Farms' irresistible always sold out Dark Chocolate Almond Granola. Trader Joe's Chocolate Almond Granola (revisiting Vegan Mofo and blog's current top post here) is a good substitute too. Or one could always make their own. Of course, my favorite chocolate laced peanut butter crack makes appearance amping up chocolate + peanut butter flavor. Bananas and chocolate and peanut butter equals massive win. Perfect simple treat for breakfast or dessert. Just take a spoon or glass straw along sweet blissful ride.
Be sure to check out all of the other participants of Vegan Mofo and prepare yourself to be bookmarking sites every single day. There's a lot of interesting themes this year! :)

Chocolate Almond Granola Dark Chocolate Dreams Banana Milkshake Ingredients and Preparation

1 banana, ripened and cold
2 tablespoon Dark Chocolate Dreams Peanut Butter
1 cup vanilla almond milk
1/3 cup Cascadian Farms Dark Chocolate Almond Granola
ice cubes

Place all ingredients in a blender- chopping, grinding, and pureeing to satisfaction.
Pour into a 12 ounce glass.
Sprinkle top with extra granola.

My fancy bow tied date is eager for a Taste of Nom Nom!
