“Feel the Burn” Green Smoothie

INGREDIENTS

2/3 cup coconut milk or unsweetened almond milk
2/3 cup water
1 serving protein powder
1 scoop berry greens
1 tbsp cacao
1 cup frozen organic raspberries
1 tbsp cinnamon
8 drops of liquid stevia
2 huge handfuls of kale (I used lacinato or "dinosaur" kale)*

DIRECTIONS

Place all ingredients in a blender in the order listed (it's easier to blend when you put the greens in last).
Blends until smooth
Serve in your favorite glass and enjoy!

*If you are new to adding greens into your diet, use spinach (it's milder than kale) or use 1 huge handful instead of 2. I love the energy boost that leafy greens provide so I like to start my day with as many raw leafy greens as I can. I recommend you do the same! Adding more leafy greens to your diet will curb your sugar cravings throughout the day too.
