Are green smoothies a bit too earthy for your tastes? Instead of bitter-tasting leafy greens, this beverage gets its olive hues from zucchini and cilantro. Plus, it packs in even more nutritional goodness thanks to plant-based protein powders. But it’s the spoonful of organic peanut butter and peanut butter powder that actually sets this smoothie apart from the others and brings about a taste-bud-pleasing drink.
