Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie

I honestly can't remember if I have ever shared the recipe for a smoothie that I found on Pinterest a while ago. In case I didn't here is the recipe. 1 large banana, peeled ( I use a frozen banana) 1 cup ice cubes (I usually just do three ice cubes) 1/2 cup almond milk 1/4 cup Greek yogurt ( I use plain) 1 heaping Tbsp. peanut butter 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract In a blender, combine all ingredients. Blend until smooth, and serve immediately.
