Whenever I have a craving for chocolate, but prefer to opt for a healthy option over getting a massive sugar rush, I often make this velvety smooth chocolate smoothie. Using the best ingredients possible, this healthy treat will be sure to please.
(And did you know that cacao is very high in antioxidants, and it contains large amounts of magnesium and iron?)
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk or raw milk
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 ripe avocado
- 4 tablespoons cacao powder (I like this brand)
- handful of ice
- 1-2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (optional)
- 1/3 cup chia seed gel (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Place all ingredients in high-speed blender, and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.
Approximately 2-3 servings
Enjoy!
