I made SUCH the kick-ass smoothie this morning. I was feeling sad about the scale. I’ve had so many slip-ups lately that there are virtual skid marks on my shoes. I couldn’t face another green smoothie so I treated myself to some super food: raw cacao! (my favorite is Navitas Naturals) . I threw in some frozen cherries and to intensify the cherry buzz I added some cherry extract. It was so fabulous I drank the whole thing even though it could have fed two people. It kept me full through a busy morning. I’m picking up some more frozen cherries on the way home. This one is a keeper.
Chocolate Cherry Buzz Smoothie
serves 2 (or 1 very hungry person)
2 cups almond milk
2 frozen bananas, medium sized
1 cup frozen cherries
5 Tbsp raw cacao powder (I like a LOT of chocolate, you can adjust to taste)
1 tsp cherry extract
Blend. Serve with love!
