chocolate covered strawberry smoothie

I think this may be just as good, if not better than the Chocolate Cherry Bomb! This should be called the "Chocolate Covered-Keeps You Going All Day- Strawberry Smoothie"
So as we all know, protein powders can be very pricey, especially if you want different flavors. While I normally roll with a big 2 pounder of Vanilla Sun Warrior, I do get the occasional hankering for a chocolate smoothie. I don't have 'tha bread' to keep both flavors around, so I just mosey on down to my local grocery store or health food store and pick up a few of the single serving packets of whatever sounds good in a chocolate flavor. I always go with something vegan and choose raw if at all possible. For today's CCSS, I went with Amazing Grass's Superfood Chocolate Powder, which has all sorts of nutrients and delicious things in it.

Try it out!

In the Mix:

1 C frozen strawberries
1 C water or almond milk or a mixture
1 packet Amazing Grass Superfood Chocolate Powder
1 scoop Vanilla Sun Warrior
1 banana
1 T raw cacao powder
Cacao nibs to taste

Blend!

A Green Smoothie a Day

So recently I have been doing a lot of research on the 'raw family.' You may have heard of them...they're the Boutenkos. Very russian and I'm assuming partly crazy. But they claim raw food and green smoothies have saved their lives and have done a lot of noteworthy things for the movement and they SWEAR BY green smoothies.

Also, Sergei is really easy on the eyes :)



Anyhoo- So I've decided to drink a green smoothie a day at least to see how it makes me feel and if getting the extra greens really changes my life and what not... we'll see.

Today's Green Smoothie:
banana
blueberries
pineapple
water
rainbow chard

what green smoothie combos should i try? I don't want to get bored...
