This healthy banana almond smoothie is a delicious, creamy treat!

INGREDIENTS
1 medium to large frozen banana (break your bananas into one-inch chunks before freezing)
1 heaping spoonful of almond butter (or peanut butter)
2 spoonfuls flax seed
½ cup almond milk, yogurt or regular milk
drizzle of honey, agave nectar or maple syrup
tiny drop of almond extract (or vanilla extract, but the almond extract makes the smoothie taste almost like candy!)

INSTRUCTIONS
Toss all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
Pour into a glass and enjoy.

NOTES
Adapted from the New York Times Recipes for Health.
Since this smoothie doesn't require any ice, just frozen banana, my inexpensive blender blends it right up!
