Here at Detox Organics, we love smoothies.
They are tasty, convenient, and there seems to be an endless stream of ways to make them. You can use them as a meal replacement, take them to go for a quick breakfast, use them to supplement what you are missing from your diet, or drink them between meals for a healthy snack.
Here is a smoothie that we can’t seem to get enough of, and because it is so simple to make with only five ingredients, it is one we can actually enjoy making. This smoothie contains almond milk, a banana, our delicious Daily Protein, almond butter, and a little bit of cinnamon to tie it all together.
It really is the perfect smoothie!
Life gets busy, and it can be difficult to sit down and eat all the meals and snacks we need to stay healthy. It can be even more difficult to make sure that every meal is fully balanced.
This is why smoothies are so convenient. We don’t need to take the time to consume them, and they only take minutes to prepare.
Plus, with our protein smoothie, you know you are working towards your Daily Protein dose.
Consuming protein is great for your health. It can help you recover after working out at the gym, and it can help you lose weight by helping you stay satisfied long after you consume it.
Although smoothies are normally pretty basic, this Vanilla Protein Smoothie really takes it to the next level.
Remember back to when you were a kid, and you would eat peanut butter with bananas? Some of us would spread the peanut butter right on the banana, while others would eat it between two pieces of bread or toast.
Now, you can still enjoy that same great combination as an adult and a protein-packed smoothie. Take this traditional treat and make it your new healthy snack.

Why We Love this Vanilla Protein Smoothie
Vanilla doesn’t have to be boring. Instead, we like to look at it as a versatile ingredient that can be added to so many desserts, smoothies, and foods to add a blast of flavor. That is why we made our Daily Protein with a hint of natural vanilla. This is what makes our smoothie really stand out!
Plus, let’s face it… vanilla is a great, classic flavor!
Because vanilla can go with so many different types of ingredients, and still be delicious, we knew it would be the perfect ingredient to add to many of our new recipes as we try to take classic desserts and treats and turn them into something healthy, so you don’t have to feel bad about eating it.
The Detox Organics Daily Protein is an all-natural protein powder made from 100% organic, plant-based ingredients. Plus, it fits perfectly into any diet, including keto, paleo, vegan, and gluten-free.
