Cacao Magic Zucchini Smoothie Recipe
Philosophie VIP Ambassador Blair Flynn dreamt up this chocolatey green smoothie featuring a nutritional powerhouse of zucchini, avocado, spinach, AND Cacao Magic!
.
I absolutely love that Blair snuck a dinner veggie into a breakfast (or dessert) smoothie. This beautiful squash is packed with potassium, a mineral that helps reduce blood pressure, as well as manganese, which safeguards your tissues from pesky free radicals. Zucchini also contains lutein and zeaxanthin, two phytonutrients that protect your eyes from harmful light rays. Gotta love those phytonutrients!
.
Gather This:
- 1 frozen small zucchini
- handful of frozen spinach
- half of avocado (if you love avocado + like it extra creamy!)
- 1 cup (or 1 1/2 cups) almond milk
- 2 heaping teaspoons Cacao Magic Superfood + Protein Blend
- 1 tablespoon Coconut Magic Coconut Butter
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1/2 tablespoon vanilla
- few shakes of cinnamon
- handful of ice
Do This:
Blitz all ingredients in a high-speed blender. (Pro tip: If you want to make it a Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie, add peppermint and cashew butter.) Pour into a gorgeous glass and sprinkle on bee pollen + cacao nibs OR your favorite superfood toppings!
