Sorry I’m late with Wednesday smoothie, I was busy prepping for a vegetarian Chinese New Year dinner tonight.
But here is my new favorite smoothie, I got hubby’s thumb’s up for this too! And he’s a picky customer. 😉 He’s not typically a fan of my green smoothies.
Espresso 1
Ingredients:
- 1 shot of espresso
- 5 dates, pitted(I like to soak them over-night in the espresso for flavor and to soften them up a bit)
- 1 t of Chia Seeds
- 1 Cup of Coconut milk
- handful of ice cubes
Blend for a nice treat!
Here is my second “greener version”
Green Caffeine Machine
- 1 shot of espresso
- 5 dates, pitted(pre-soaked in the espresso)
- 1 t of raw cocoa powder(I used Nua)
- 1/2 t of cinnamon(I threw the cinnamon & cocoa powder in with the espresso and dates to pre-soak overnight)
- 1 t of Chia seeds
- 1.5 C of Coconut Milk
- 1-2 handfuls of spinach
- 1 t of Ultimate Green Powder
- handful of ice
Blend! You should still find the taste of espresso with everything healthy masked under it. Hubby didn’t even know it was good for him!
