Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp almond butter
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1/4 – 1/3 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 1 large handful of spinach OR if you run out of fresh greens add 2 scoops of Amazing Green Powder for an extra healthy green boost.
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp raw honey or your preferred sweetener or to taste
  • 1/2 tbsp cacao nibs
Optional:
  • 1 tsp cacao powder for a more chocolatey taste
  • 1 scoop your favourite protein powder I like Sunwarrior Chocolate or Vanilla here
  • oats to make it a Green Thickie!

Method
 

  1. Add all ingredients to our blender except the cacao nibs.
  2. Blend until smooth.
  3. Add in the cacao nibs and pulse a couple times to break them up a little, but so you still have chunks.
  4. Serve immediately garnished with fresh mint and cacao nibs on top.
  5. To make this more of an “ice cream”, use your food processor instead and add less almond milk, only 1/4 cup or just enough to help it process.
