What Goes Well With a Mushroom Smoothie?

Mushrooms add an earthy flavor to the smoothie and work very well with the sweetness of the bananas and the nuttiness of the peanut butter.

How To Make a Fresh Mushroom Smoothie
You will need:

We used closed-cup mushrooms, but really, you can use any mushrooms you like.
Instead of peanut butter, you can use other nut butter such as cashew butter. However, for a nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter instead.
