Yia sas! And happy Friday! (wasn't sure how to say that in Greek ). I found
this link the other day that someone posted on Facebook from Buzzfeed, called "What It's Like To Be a 20-Something as Told by "Mean Girls," "Bridesmaids," and "Girls."
Read it. I was laughing out loud in my apartment and now I hope my neighbors don't think I've gone insane. Everything on there is SO TRUE!!!! This is my favorite gif from the sequence:
But now you're like,
And...
I can't stop laughing. Moving on... Today I have a recipe for you! Did your jaw just drop to the floor? Yea, I know, it's been a while. But don't worry, it's super simple: Peanut Butter Banana Recovery Smoothie!
The other day I went to the gym and ran my 1.75 miles before Zumba (I didn't get it done Wednesday). By the time I'd finished I'd been working out for 1.5 hours and I was hungry and in need of some refueling!
Peanut Butter Banana Recovery Smoothie Ingredients 3/4 cup milk (I used almond milk) 1/2 banana 1 scoop protein powder (I use Sunwarrior Vanilla) 1 T peanut butter handful of ice 1 packet stevia 1/4 tsp vanilla 1/8-1/4 tsp xantham gum (optional)
Directions Put ingredients into blender and blend! It's best to add the ice in slowly, especially if you're blender tends to get stopped up. It was delicious.
I've never actually made a smoothie with peanut butter in it; I always felt like it was a waste of peanut butter since you weren't really getting the full effect of the peanutty buttery goodness. I was surprised how much you could taste it!
Have you ever used peanut butter in a smoothie? What's your workout today? Do you make sure to have a recovery drink/meal after a workout?
