Chocolate Peanut Butter Berry Smoothie
I am a 24-year-old cystic fibrosis patient who has found a love for cooking and baking. My 20-year-old brother also has cystic fibrosis. I believe it is important to make healthy food choices while still consuming the high amount of calories that are required for most cystic fibrosis patients. This recipe is a spin-off of my mom's creation, and is a breakfast drink that I have enjoyed many times. It provides healthy yogurt and fruit, along with extra calories, fat, and protein from the peanut butter and Nutella. This smoothie is a great recipe for picky kids, as well as teenagers and adults, that will help provide a delicious start to the day.
