Want something quick, easy and super satisfying, try this smoothie! I made this one morning during a snow storm at work from the few ingredients I could salvage from the office kitchen. I love using my Cuisinart Smart Stick so much at home that I bought a 2nd one to keep in the office. Some frozen grapes from the freezer, peanut butter and unsweetened almond milk blended in a glass and OMG you will not believe how yummy this is. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
