Skinny Chocolate Banana Smoothie


I have been searching for a quick and yummy skinny smoothie and I finally found it!  This smoothie is more like a chocolate shake than a smoothie.  And there are only 4 ingredients. It's the perfect healthy snack!  I've been eating one every day at lunchtime - it's very filling and addicting.  You will not be disappointed.



Plus, did you know all the great health benefits of eating bananas?
Click here to read all about how great bananas are for you!


Ingredients:
8 oz soy milk, milk or coconut milk (I use soy milk)
1 Tbsp unsweetened 100% cocoa powder *
2 bananas (frozen)
1 Tbsp honey **

* Did you know that one tablespoon of Hershey's Cocoa has only 0.5g of fat, 10 calories and NO sugar!  I  had no idea!  I used Ghiradelli Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (I think it tastes better).

** I don't think this shake needs much sweetening so I don't use the honey.  At first I'd just squeeze a teaspoon or two of honey in the blender, but now I don't use it at all and don't notice the difference.  It also reduces the calories :)

Instructions:
Add all ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth.







Hope you all have a fun Spring Break and please bring back more warm weather!
