My Current Go-To (Hint: It's Not a Cute Clutch)

I'm laughing at all of you who thought I was going to be highlighting an ah-mazing wardrobe must-have or something of the like in this post. It's winter up here. My body is busy maintaining my internal temperature and, as my growling stomach can vouch, it's taking up all my energy doing that and I'm always starving as a result. I don't have time for clothes, makeup, and stuff I should be writing about right now. I need food, because only it can fill the empty void that is my heart. And stomach.

For whatever reason, I seem to have a peculiar affinity for frozen treats. Ice cream? Check. These frozen yogurt things I randomly came up with? Heck yeah. So it's no surprise that I've recently been downing a significant amount of frozen banana-nutella smoothies.

It's super easy to make. You only need three ingredients at the most and it's a one step process. This makes one big serving. 

Ingredients:

  • 2 banana(s) with 5-10 ice cubes per banana OR 2 frozen bananas
  • 1-2 tbspn Nutella (to taste)

I used room temp. bananas. Also, I love me some Nutella.


Tools:

  • Blender (one that can chop up ice/frozen things)
  • Something to carry ice cubes in (if you don't use frozen bananas)


Like I said, one step. Just throw everything in your blender and mix. 





If it isn't as thick as you'd like, add more ice cubes; I start with three. If you don't like thick smoothies, add milk to thin it out. If you have it, almond milk pairs well with banana. Of course, regular milk works just as well also.

So, try it out and let me know. Send pictures to my email, leatherandrouge@gmail.com, and comment below.
