I Make This Creamy Nutrient-Dense Chocolate Smoothie At Least Once A Week
Who doesn't love a nutrient-packed smoothie that tastes like a chocolate frosty?
My delicious chocolate smoothie recipe has become one of my favorite go-to's: I seriously make it for my boyfriend and myself at least once a week—and he loves it, too. This blend contains ingredients with anti-inflammatory properties and important minerals like potassium and iron.*
How, you might ask? The secret ingredient is mindbodygreen's organic veggies+ green powder, which contains a USDA-certified organic whole foods blend with 31 powerhouse ingredients, including organic sea vegetables, dark leafy greens, root vegetables, and antioxidant-rich fruits. It even contains various ingredients that support digestion and gut health, including probiotics, prebiotic fibers, and digestive enzymes.* Anytime I can sneak in extra nutrition, I will, which is why I love using organic veggies+ in a variety of ways.*
In this recipe, I also mix in other nutritious ingredients, like bananas and almond butter, to create a well-rounded meal with protein, fat, and carbs. Plus, the addition of cocoa nibs provides a boost of iron and fiber—not to mention, flavor.
Bottom line: This nutritious chocolate smoothie is sure to keep you fueled up and feeling good.
