My favorite Smoothie

I don't know about you, but I'm the kind of cook that always follows a recipe. Sure, I might substitute a thing or two based on need, but I usually don't cook using my own made-up concoctions!

Lately this has begun to bother me. If everyone one else can make up food on the fly, why can't I?

Well, of course I can! And it can be fun! Here is my first totally made up recipe, called "My favorite Breakfast Smoothie". It's not a culinary genius, and probably someone else has thought of it, but I am proud. :)

It all started out with a craving for a smoothie. Only, smoothies usually have strawberries and stuff. I didn't have any of that, so I made a peanut butter and Nutella smoothie, with almond milk and a stray banana thrown in to balance the flavor.  That's it. And it's good, too; as long as you don't use a unripe banana like I did once. (my mouth and nasal passages are still recovering). Anyway, without future comment:
