Smoothies are great for busy mornings. I usually workout first thing when I wake up in a fasted state, and then have breakfast. This Chocolate Banana Smoothie is a great way to fill up, rehydrate and replenish my energy stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to add a little more protein, fiber, and Omega 3 fatty acids, toss in a tablespoon of flax seeds or chia seeds before blending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you use protein powder instead of cocoa powder?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By the powers invested in me by the Internet I hereby grant you permission to make your smoothie how you want to make it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protein powder will add more protein to the smoothie than cocoa powder. I know that's fairly obvious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recommend that you choose a protein powder that does not have added sugar. And, if your protein is made with whey or casein they will not be dairy free. Chose what is right for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dairy Free or Not Smoothies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This recipe uses almond milk and cocoa powder so there is no dairy. And it is also vegan. You can use any non-dairy milk you prefer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don't need it to be vegan, use cow's milk or a whey or casein protein powder if you prefer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
