This recipe is for the chocolate lovers who are looking for a healthier way of fulfilling those sweet cravings. While I typically start my day with my daily green smoothie, I also enjoy switching it up and adding this smoothie in as an afternoon kick. Raw cacao is also a great source of Magnesium, and other essential minerals including calcium, sulfur, zinc, iron, copper, potassium, and manganese. Sometimes I also throw in Maca Powder to give it an extra superfood kick.


Chocolate Mint Smoothie (Cacao, Mint, Banana, Dates)
  • 4 to 8 oz of almond milk
  • 1/2 banana
  • 2-3 tablespoons of raw cacao powder (depends on chocolatey you want it)
  • 2-3 dates soaked and pitted
  • 1 tablespoon of mint (2-4 leaves to taste)
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint (6-10 leaves)
  • Protein powder (optional)
  • Maca Powder (optional)
  • 1/2 Avocado for creamy texture (optional)
  • Blend until smooth, top with raw cacao nibs and mint (optional)

    About Me

    Who am I and do why write this blog? Each time I ask myself that question, I find that I have so much more to learn and discover. "Who am I" is an ongoing process, and just when we think we've figured it out, life has its way of throwing us a ton of curve balls-but that's why its called a journey.
