Peanut Butter Banana Date Smoothie

Peanut butter and banana is always a deadly combination, however, who would have thought dates? A good friend whipped one up for me for breakfast on vacation and it always stuck with me. Finally, when we had made our homemade peanut butter I’ve been on the peanut butter banana date smoothie making train!

Did you know the health benefits of dates?

1. High in fiber good for digestive health–(keeps you regular).
2. High in antioxidants that aid in fighting off disease that includes COVID.
3. Studies have found evidence that dates may contribute to good brain health (could always use more brainpower).
4. A natural sweetener that aids in controlling blood sugars.
