Cacao & Dark Choc Smoothie
Since the holidays have sadly ended (I'm still trying to slowly get over this- I think it will just take some time but #slowlybutsurely), smoothies are the way to go for a busy schedule. And because I just started uni and it's only the second week and errythang is going absolutely cray cray with assignments and info i need to somehow plunge into my brain. So a quick but healthy brekkie fix is much needed! Whether you make them the night before or whip them up in the morning, I'm defs one to get mah smoooooothie on!
Get your smoothieeee on and bring all the boys to the yard with this cacao and dark choc smoothie...
Ingredients:
- 2 frozen bananas (I chopped mine in small pieces before I place them in the freezer so they blend more easily)
- 3 pitted dates
- 1 tsp cacao
- 1 tbs chia
- 1 tsp LSA
- sprinkle of cinnamon
- 1 scoop of protein powder
- 1 tbsp cocoa nibs or you could use dark choc
- 1 tbsp oats
- 1 tbs vegan dark choc spread - or you could add more cocoa nibs or dark choc if you don't have this at hand
- 1 cup of almond milk + extra if you want a runnier texture
- Optional toppings - I used coconut chips and cocoa nibs but you can use fruit, nuts, chocolate or anything you have on hand
Method:
1. Blend all ingredients (except for the toppings) in a blender or food processor until all the ingredients are well combined. Add more almond milk if you want a runnier texture.
2. Place in a glass or jar and top with desired toppings. Enjoy!
