This morning i wasnt feeling the best. It took a lot for me to will myself to make this delicious smoothie. I am so glad i finally did. I whipped it up based on what i had on hand. Reminded me of one i once had at tropical smoothie cafe, but without all the ice cubes. Plus, mine is 100% organic. I have to say this was so much better. It was absolutely phenomenal!
Everything here, besides the peanut butter, was bought from Costco. Costco seriously is a life saver. They have so many good deals on organic produce. I dont know what i would do without it.
