Peanut Butter and Banana Breakfast Shake


This was Gabrielle's breakfast this morning-- she has been wanting a "chocolate smoothie" for a long time now. She said how good it was about five times! I am always happy to find something she will eat happily.

I got this recipe in a little booklet I picked up somewhere. It is from the Midwest Dairy Association and Midwest Dairy Council. Their website is www.midwestdairy.com. Lots of good recipes and nutrition information. Check it out!


Ingredients:
1 cup of fat-free or 1% low-fat chocolate milk
1/2 cup frozen banana slices
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation:
Combine all ingredients in a blender; blend until smooth and creamy. Serve in tall glass or on-the-go drink container.
