“Feel the Burn” Green Smoothie

I just had the best workout and couldn't wait to reward my body with the nutrients it deserved. This smoothie has it all: Leafy greens, protein, antioxidants, everything you need to start your day. Don't be turned off by the green color. It's the color of energy and vitality! Drink up!

“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

1. Place all ingredients in a blender in the order listed (it's easier to blend when you put the greens in last).

2. Blends until smooth

3. 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.
