Ingredients

• For the chocolate layer:
• 1 frozen ripe banana
• 2 tablespoons  vanilla protein powder
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder (or raw cacao powder)
• 1 teaspoon chia seeds
• 1/4 cup Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla AlmondMilk CashewMilk Blend
• For the banana layer:
• 1 frozen ripe banana
• 2 tablespoons  vanilla protein powder
• 1 teaspoon chia seeds
• 1/4 cup  Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla AlmondMilk CashewMilk Blend
• For the strawberry layer:
• 8  frozen strawberries
• 2 tablespoons protein powder of choice
• 1/4-1/3 cup  Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla AlmondMilk CashewMilk Blend

Instructions

• Make the chocolate layer first: In a blender, add in frozen banana, protein powder, cocoa powder, chia seeds and milk. It should be THICK. Divide between 2 medium glasses and place in the freezer.
• Rinse the blender, then make the banana layer by adding frozen banana, protein powder, chia seed and milk. Blend until thick, smooth and creamy. 
• Gently layer banana smoothie onto chocolate smoothie, gently spooning it around the inside edge of the glass. Place glasses back inside the freezer.
• To make the strawberry layer: Blend strawberries, protein powder and almond milk together. Again, you want this to be pretty thick, but you may need to add in more almond milk to make it blend. 
• Once strawberry smoothie is thick and creamy, gently spoon it over the chocolate layer. Place glasses back in the freezer again for a few minutes, then enjoy!
