Gather: @soy milk or plant-based milk of choice{1.5%cup}(more as needed), @./components/Frozen Banana & Spinach Smoothie Pack{1%cup}(from meal prep), @fresh mint leaves or peppermint extract{0.25%tsp}, @almond butter or tahini{2%tbsp}, @large Medjool dates{2}(pits removed or a few teaspoons of pure maple syrup, as desired), @of ice{2%handful}(optional, for extra frostiness), @or more chocolate plant-based protein powder{1}(scoop | scoops; optional, for added protein), @Kosher salt{}(as needed), @cacao nibs OR dark chocolate{1%oz}(chopped).

Pour the soy milk into a high-powered blender. Then add the Frozen Banana & Spinach Smoothie Pack, mint, almond butter, and dates. For a frostier smoothie, you can add the ice if desired, but make sure you're using a high-powered blender.

Start blending on low, then gradually increase to high, using a blender tamper if you have one. If you need extra liquid to get things moving, add more milk and blend again.

Optional: If using protein powder, add it now and blend again until incorporated. If your protein powder has added sweetness, I recommend adding a pinch of salt to balance.

Add the cacao nibs or chopped dark chocolate, and pulse a few times just to incorporate and distribute. Don’t blend fully, as you want flecks and crunch.

Taste, adding more cacao or chocolate as desired.
