Spinach in a Hurry (Green Smoothie)

I've been stocking up on healthy, dairy-free snacks in preparation for the arrival of the new baby.  I found several versions of this on Pinterest and had to give it a try.

1 bag frozen spinach
3/4 c peanut butter
1/4 c cocoa powder
1 c almond milk (or more depending on texture)
(3 servings)

Puree until smooth.  I did mine in a food processor, because I thought my hand might vibrate off if I used my trusty old stick blender.  I added most ingredients until it tasted just right, then split it into three jars for the freezer.  They thaw pretty well in just about 30 minutes (about the time it takes me to get lunches packed and everything else ready), then I've got some easy veggies and protein!
