I know this sounds like breakfast in a glass, but its actually a perfect bedtime drink! Bananas give you a dose of melatonin, serotonin and magnesium to help your muscles uncoil and help you sleep soundly. Chia seed gives you high amounts of tryptophan and omega-3 fatty acids which increase levels of the sleep-regulating serotonin. This is the PERFECT banana milkshake/ice cream-style smoothie, with just the right amount of peanut butter to add that “delicious” PB factor. It’s the perfect smoothie blend with a kick of protein, fat, carbs. Sleep well, cheers!

Place two of the frozen bananas into your blender, add almond milk and chia seed. Blend until thick. Add a tablespoonful or two or three of peanut butter (to taste), along with vanilla. Blend again until the smoothie is well-mixed, and add the last banana to thicken the smoothie. Nighty night!
