Banana Chocolate Green Monster Smoothie

I finally broke out my trial Chocolate Amazing Grass packet, which I bought at Whole Foods about 2 months ago and made a breakfast smoothie. 

I can honestly tell you that I didn’t taste even a hint of grass, let alone vegetable in this Banana Chocolate Green Monster.  It resembles a chocolate peanut butter milk shake in flavor and texture, and the hint of coconut is a great addition!

Banana Chocolate Coconut Green Monster

While I wholly enjoyed this for breakfast, I would prefer this as an afternoon smoothie snack after a work out, as the chocolate was a bit too rich for me first thing in the morning.

I know, I know…I’m lame.  I never was one to like cocoa puffs, chocolate-chip pancakes, or even Nutella as a breakfast treat.  Blame my mother.
