Well, I use the word “green” loosely. There’s a generous handful of spinach hiding in there, but the peanut butter and cocoa powder give the smoothie a more classic brown hue. It’s easy to make, packed with protein, made with healthier ingredients, yet it tastes just like a peanut butter cup. I mean, can you ever go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter?!? I think not.
