My smoothie base is pretty much always the same - oats, spinach, brazil nut, chia seeds. This way I always end up with a filling smoothie bowl that won't leave my stomach growling by 12 am. It's the liquid part and the flavoring that I like to play around with, and this one is a real winner. Just the right creaminess from the banana, just cold enough from the frozen spinach, and just the right amount of 'hearty' because of the peanut butter. Oh, and did I mention this is a high fat and protein (i.e. *keto*) smoothie?

- 1 Brazil Nut
- 1 TBSP Chia Seeds

Directions
1. Put all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. You might need to chop up the frozen spinach into smaller pieces first, depending on how big the chunks are.
2. Serve in a large bowl, with your favourite toppings, and enjoy!
Tip: For a Reese’s inspired smoothie bowl and a little extra healthy fat, add 1-2 TBSP Raw Cacao Powder! To increase the fat content even more and keep the creaminess, you can swap out the banana with 1/2 an avocado.
