Jan 13, 2015

Want a super decadent, thick and creamy Fluffernutter Smothie…  for BREAKFAST??  Well, now you can with this secretly healthy recipe!  Yes, I’m serious.

This Fluffernutter Smoothie is incredibly rich and smooth, it doesn’t taste healthy in the slightest.

It’s perfectly (and naturally) sweet…  with none of the high-fructose corn syrup.

It’s thick and creamy…  without any of the sugary ice creams or hydrogenated oil-filled Nutter Butters.

It’s filling and 100% satisfying…  it’s got 37g of satiating protein, 6g of fiber and 6.5g of healthy fats.

BOOM.

I totally wasn’t expecting such a high protein content!  When I was chugging enjoying this smoothie, all I could think was, “Wow, this is probably a total calorie- and fat-bomb…  OH WELL!  It tastes so good it’s worth it!”

Little did I know at the time that it was actually low fat, low sugar, high fiber, and high protein.  I think that’s what they call, “winning”  😉

Yeah, I can already tell that this smoothie is going to be a staple for me throughout the next few months.  I’m in my final year in university — *does embarrassing happy dance* — so all I need are quick and easy, secretly healthy dessert recipes to help me bust out this last semester of mine.

To finish strong, you gotta fuel up on healthy food…

And that totally includes this Healthy Fluffernutter Smoothie  🙂
