Notes
Variations
1. Replace nuts with raisins, chocolate chips, or any dried fruit.
2. Feel free to substitute chocolate Shake Time with peanut butter Shake Time.
3. Use natural peanut butter if you prefer. You can also go with a lower-fat, lower-sugar peanut butter.
4. Diet information - Honey is mainly a source of sugar. It’s important to remember that it’s half glucose and half fructose. This gives it a medium GI rating of 60, so it’s not as fast digesting as pure table sugar would be.
