Cocoa and Raw Super Green

This one had some green powdered flavor, but cocoa was the hero.
1 scoop Garden of Life Super Green powder
1/4 cup cocoa
1 1/4 cup almond milk
1 tbsp honey
Poured over ice.
178 calories

It seemed to want cinnamon, so I put that on the apple. A great pairing.

PB2 Chocolate Protein Smoothie

PB2 is a great way to add peanut butter to a smoothie without adding the oil. I started with a handful of ice for some thickness, then added:
1 cup almond milk
1 packet of protein mix
2 tbsp PB2

165 calories
Soooo good! 8)

Almond Milk Protein Smoothie

Today, I broke in my new and fabulous blender. I put some frozen mixed berries in and used the chop ice function. Then I added 1 1/2 cups of unsweetened Almond milk. It was still too thick, so I poured in 1/2 cup of coconut water. A scoop of berry flavored veg protein mix finished it off. It made 2 glasses. According to the app I am using, each glass is about 169 calories.
Enjoy!
