Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie

I have been a little obsessed with these smoothies lately... They are soooo good, healthy and filling! I use these as breakfast or midmorning meal. Well, really I think I have had these for dinner too so they are great anytime of the day. They have a lot of texture to them which I really like. I also like the nutty texture and taste the ground flax seed gives.

Paleo Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie 

1 cup chocolate almond milk
1/2 cup frozen spinach or large handful of fresh spinach
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (this makes it more fluffy)
1 frozen banana (if you don't have frozen thats alright)
1 large spoonful of natural peanut butter or powdered peanut butter works great as well
1 T or more of ground flax seed
1 T or more of chia seeds
(or 2 T of Spectrum Essentials Decadent Blend of Chia and Flax Seed with Coconut and Cocoa)
1 cup of ice

Put in blender and mix until ice is all broken up. Enjoy!!
