{{Frappucino Friday}}


My favorite Cafe Latte recipe ::


•1/2 a frozen banana

•1/2 ice

•1 cup of almond milk

•a dollop of whip cream spray or coconut cool whip

•1 scoop of Cafe Latte Shakeology


{{Directions}} 

1).  Add all the liquid ingredients to the mixer. 

2). Followed with the powder ingredients on the top and blend throughly. 

3).  Add a dollop of cream on top for garnish.

Enjoy your healthy frapp! 



{{For added flavoring}} 

** Sometimes when I want to live on the edge I drizzle a bit of chocolate syrup on the top.

OR 

** The healthier way to add chocolate flavor is to add a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the mix before blending.

**For vanilla add a teaspoon of vanilla extract before blending.
