Banana Chocolate Protein Shake with Cocoa Nibs

This is a freshing drink after a long humid run. I added a banana for some thickness, extra fiber, and potassium. To top it off, I sprinkled cocoa nibs for an added flare. I have a new found love for cocoa nibs. 

Cocoa nibs packet some hefty antioxidants from the cacao bean which chocolate is harvested from! Not to mention they add a nice nutty texture with cocoa flavor, bonus no sugar. 
Ingredients:

1 scoop of chocolate protein powder (about 100 calories per scoop) 

1 cup vanilla almond cashew blend unsweetened milk (or any other unsweetened vanilla nut milk around 25-35 calories per serving)

1 medium banana

Handful of ice (5-6 cubes) 

A pinch of cocoa nibs

Directions:

1. Place the milk, & protein powder in blender, pulse a few times. Add banana and purée mixture. Add ice and allow the blender to work its magic. Mix until you reach the desired consistency you prefer. Pour into a fun glass and top cocoa nibs. Enjoy!
