CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER SHAKE {VEGAN + GF}

Happy Monday friends!  I've been on a no super cold foods thing since January per the instructions of my acupuncturist.  But this weekend I broke, and I broke hard.  It was a chocolate peanut butter shake that did me in.  It's such a simple drink to whip up, full of healthy things, and utterly decadent. I suggest you make one, even if your acupuncturist advises against it.  Because really, what's one chocolate peanut butter shake gonna do?  And how is a girl supposed to live for more than three months without one?  SHE ISN'T!!!  xx- Sarah {recipe after the jump}

This looks amazing! Definitely worth going against your acupuncturist's advice for! I seem to do better with warm foods too but I still love icy smoothies and lots of raw veggies ;)

I've been making this so much lately, but without the ice. Our blender can't crush ice, so I've been wanting to try frozen bananas.

Do you have any suggestions of what to use if you don't have dates?
