Vegan Mofo Day #5: Peanut Butter Banana Shake

Yummy yum yum.
For Vegan Mofo Day #5, I confess having a late night crush. It's monstrous. Sometimes drives me a little over the edge. Funnily enough, this has nothing to do with wild chocolate cravings (which usually gain an insatiable fervor within). Obsession has involved blending together crunchy peanut butter, bananas, and almond milk-- an intriguing balanced cross between smoothie and milkshake. The saltiness from two ingredient peanut butter (peanuts and salt) combined with sweet not too ripened banana (adding thick creaminess) and almond milk (lightly cloying tying things to liquid-ly proportion) makes for a satisfying fulfillment to take sips of in both the late late night (whilst watching Netflix) and the early early morning (when fooling people into believing you're having coffee).
Peanut butter and bananas are always a treat!

Three simple ingredients make for a great instant guilty pleasure.
Peanut Butter Banana Shake Ingredients and Preparation

1 banana, not too ripe
2 tablespoon crunchy peanut butter
1 1/2 cup almond milk

Blended together-- all nice and rich.
Pour into your favorite cup.
Drink happily ever after.

  1. I like the fact that you try to trick people into believing you're having a normal adult drink! At least then you don't have to share it either - it sounds delicious.
