    You could add the powder with the cocoa, but adding additional ingredients would change the nutritional value of the recipe. You would need to recalucate based on the ingredients you use.

    Is there an even simpler smoothie recipe using a low carb protein powder and a liquid of some sort--almond milk or coconut milk?

    Yes, that would work well! Just keep an eye on the ingredients in the protein powder as many have artificial sweeteners.

    How much is one ounce of cauliflower in tablespoon or cups?

    That is going to depend on how large or finely chopped the cauliflower is.

    The taste is good; however mine was super thin, not thick like most smoothies. Was i suppose to use coconut milk from the can?

    It has not been tested with peanut butter, but you could certainly try it!

    It adds protein and helps to thicken the shake.

    Can I add chia seeds instead of the cauliflower? If so, how many tablespoons would you recommend? Thanks in advance.

    I'm not sure I would recommend that as the cauliflower helps thicken the shake. You would not get the same consistency.
