Peanut Butter Protein Bliss Smoothie

This Peanut Butter Protein Bliss Smoothie contains no actual peanut butter. Odd, I know, but I needed a way to cure my peanut butter cravings in a controlled, less-fat kind of way.

Because let's be honest, I can't be trusted with a jar of peanut butter.

I just can't.

And this week my PB cravings were off the charts. The 7-Year-Old requests a peanut butter (no jelly) sandwich almost every day for lunch, and I just couldn't take it anymore! So I made myself this smoothie a few days to help keep me from overdosing on actual peanut butter (which I have done many, many times before) and it hit the spot.

This morning I made it again and added a small sprinkle of cocoa nibs on top.

They made it much prettier to photograph and I loved the little crunch they added at the end.

In other news...

• My Father-in-Law is home and recovering well.
• One of my passion projects may be coming to fruition. I've been interviewing at a local gym for a part-time personal trainer gig! I'm ecstatic!
• I have quite a few balls in the air at the moment, but I've been feeling pretty fantastic lately.
