How To Make A Mint Chocolate Chip Protein Superfood Smoothie
This recipe would be great if you have overripe bananas laying around! Chop the bananas into coins and place in a ziploc bag to freeze. Pre-chopping will allow for an easier blend, but it’s definitely an optional step - especially if you have a strong blender!
Now all you have to follow are three steps:
- Blend all your ingredients minus the cacao nibs
- Add the cacao nibs and slightly blend
- Enjoy!
Of course this recipe is very forgiving for you to add your own twists. You could also make a smoothie bowl and top with amazing ingredients like chia seeds, granola, strawberries, or whatever you would like -the list is endless!
The Secret Behind Superfoods
Superfoods are nutrient dense foods great for your health- and this recipe has plenty from its inclusion of hemp milk, chlorella powder, cacao nibs, and bananas.
- Hemp milk is a great dairy alternative because it has more calcium than dairy milk and contains protein and omega 3 and 6 fatty acids that are great for heart and brain health.
- Chlorella powder is what gives this smoothie an amazing vibrant green color and is rich in iron, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants.
- Cacao nibs help satisfy that chocolate craving and are filled with antioxidants and cause your body to release serotonin- helping to improve your mood!
- Finally we have bananas- an amazing source of potassium, fiber, and a number of vitamin and minerals.
