It has cacao nibs in it, which provide a nice crunch and a huge burst of nutrition. Cacao is one of the best food sources of magnesium, which helps relax the mind and body. This smoothie also contains super-food kale. I am always looking for more vehicles to get my family to eat more kale, and smoothies just happen to be a great one!
You can make this for breakfast, afternoon snack or desert.
- 1 cup almond milk, unsweetened
- 1 handful of chopped kale
- 1 banana
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1-2 tbsp cacao nibs (found in bulk section at your health food store)
- 1 tbsp ground flax seed
- 2 scoops vanilla or chocolate protein powder (I prefer pea protein)
