- 1 medium banana
- 2 dates
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter (or any type of nut butter or seed butter)
- 1 cup silken tofu (or soft tofu)
- 1/4 cup rinsed and drained canned chickpeas (or cooked dried chickpeas or any other type of bean)
- 1 cup unsweetened soy milk
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 1 pinch of sea salt
Peel 1 medium banana, break it into pieces, then add it to a blender.
Remove the pits from 2 dates, then add them to the blender.
Add 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, 1 cup silken tofu, 1/4 cup rinsed and drained canned chickpeas, 1 cup unsweetened soy milk, 1/4 cup cold water, and 1 pinch of sea salt to the blender.
Blend until smooth.
Enjoy this smoothie right away or store it in the fridge for up to three days, then stir immediately before serving.
- Soy milk works well in this smoothie because it’s higher in protein than most other plant-based milks. You can substitute any other type of unsweetened plant-based milk, just be aware that the protein content might be lower in that case.
