Almond Butter Protein Smoothies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Banana & Almond Butter Protein Smoothie Boasts 14g of Protein

— August 18, 2024 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe's is helping you skip the messy blender cleanup with its new Banana & Almond Butter Protein Smoothie.

Perfect for those days when you need to refuel in a flash, Trader Joe's Banana & Almond Butter Protein Smoothie has you covered. The new smoothie is made with a tasty, but also refreshing, blend of coconut water, banana purée, almond butter, and plant-based pea protein. The result is essentially an almond butter and banana sandwich, but in a sippable format. Best of all, the addition of pea protein helps to deliver an impressive 14 grams of protein per serving.

If you're looking for a little extra boost along with your morning smoothie, Trader Joe's suggests adding in a splash of caffeinated Cold Brew Concentrate.
