Recipe: Banana Chocolate Coconut Smoothie
/Hi All! My body has been craving smoothies, green juice, and super, super healthy food (along with yoga and meditation….very odd pregnancy cravings!). So I’ve been in my kitchen recipe testing a storm! Here’s one that my husband and I loved. I’ve put together the nutritional info so you know what you are consuming. Every time I order a smoothie at a health shop and/or restaurant, I am pretty scared to even ask about the calories and nutrition in this “healthy” shake. The great thing about making these yourself is that you can manage all of that to your liking right in your kitchen. Remember to have a balanced diet by looking at what you eat the rest of the day and getting the rest of your vitamins and nutrients from there.
Recipe (16 ounces)
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1.5 bananas
- 8 tablespoons protein powder (I used Trader Joe’s Vanilla Whey Protein Powder)
- 2 tablespoons almond butter
- 1 tablespoons coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoons ground flaxseed
- 1.5 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Preparation
Take all of the ingredients and mix in your blender. That easy!
I truly hope you enjoy this recipe and that it helps you live a healthier life. I would absolutely love to hear from you, so please leave a comment below and let me know what you think. If you enjoyed this post, share it with your friends and family!
Lots of love,
