High in bad fats and sugars, there’s really nothing nutritional about them. However, that doesn’t mean I don’t want my occasional slice of rye slathered in it. I’m only human. The solution? My clean take on the good stuff, enriched with additional protein and omega-3s.<br /> <br /> Spoons at the ready…<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhELYIMmq2YsO8AxQBkn80lRoXmbj0waNUK5PMyREG0WUtMAX-4wOH4YEGGbI0zopu-HOLwuOT0_zzN99YJnZWaERw0QUythFa4q1pWqadzpSDrCJrsCFnHbWuUXnHMmd2YDzHjCGuo9PlM/s1600/proteinnutella.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhELYIMmq2YsO8AxQBkn80lRoXmbj0waNUK5PMyREG0WUtMAX-4wOH4YEGGbI0zopu-HOLwuOT0_zzN99YJnZWaERw0QUythFa4q1pWqadzpSDrCJrsCFnHbWuUXnHMmd2YDzHjCGuo9PlM/s320/proteinnutella.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <br /> Ingredients:<br /> 1 small ripe banana<br /> 25 raw hazelnuts<br /> 2 tablespoons natural nut butter (I used peanut)<br /> 2 small avocados<br /> 3 tbsp unsweetened organic cocoa<br /> 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (optional)<br /> 2 teaspoons cinnamon<br /> 2 teaspoons natural vanilla extract<br /> 2 tbsp agave or 5 drops liquid stevia<br /> Splash of water or your favorite milk<br /> Pinch sea salt to taste<br /> <br /> Method:<br /> Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend, blend, blend until smooth.<br /> <br /> Add extra water or milk until the spread reaches your desired consistency.
