8g
2 ice cubes
44g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Measure out ½ cup of tofu and cut it into smaller pieces if necessary to fit into your blender.
- Measure 1 cup of soy milk.
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller chunks for easier blending.
- Measure ½ tablespoon of peanut butter.
- Grab 2 ice cubes.
2. Blend Ingredients:
- Add the tofu pieces to the blender first.
- Pour in the soy milk.
- Add the banana chunks.
- Scoop in the peanut butter.
- Drop in the ice cubes.
3. Blend Smoothie:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until all ingredients are smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and stir or scrape down the sides halfway through blending to ensure everything is mixed well.
4. Check Consistency:
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a splash more soy milk and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
5. Serve:
- Pour the smoothie into a glass.
- Enjoy immediately while cold!

Tips:

- Choose Silken Tofu: For a smoother texture, use silken tofu instead of firm tofu. It blends more easily and creates a creamier consistency.

- Freeze Your Banana: Freezing the banana beforehand can help thicken the smoothie and make it extra cold and refreshing.

- Sweeten to Taste: If you have a sweet tooth, consider adding a touch of maple syrup or agave nectar to enhance the sweetness.

- Add Greens: For an extra nutrient boost, feel free to add a handful of spinach or kale. This will increase the fiber and vitamin content without significantly altering the taste.

- Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add more soy milk to reach your desired consistency. Conversely, if it’s too thin, adding an extra ice cube can help thicken it up.

- Use Quality Peanut Butter: Opt for natural peanut butter with no added sugars or oils for a healthier choice.

- Serving Suggestion: Garnish with a sprinkle of chia or flax seeds for additional omega-3 fatty acids and a slight crunch.
