Ingredients
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup frozen cauliflower florets
- 1 ½ cup plant-based milk such as almond, soy, or oat milk
- 1 scoop plant-based chocolate protein powder
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter

Instructions
- Ensure that the banana and cauliflower are frozen for a creamy, thick texture. Measure out the plant-based milk, protein powder, peanut butter, and cacao powder.
- In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen banana, frozen cauliflower florets, plant-based milk, chocolate protein powder, peanut butter, and cacao powder.
- Blend on high speed until all the ingredients are well combined and the smoothie is creamy and smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is mixed evenly.
