Almond Cinnamon Smoothie

Almond Cinnamon Smoothie

Smoothies can be super healthy and . . . not. It all depends on the ingredients. This smoothie contains a lot of health boosting ingredients.

INGREDIENTS

• Almond milk:  12 – 14 ounces (unsweetened; organic is best; I like vanilla flavored)
• Banana: ½ (can be frozen)
• Almonds:  ¼ cup slivered (I like slivered almonds instead of sliced with skins; I toast them myself)
• Almond butter: 1 Tbls
• Flax or chia seeds: 1 Tbls
• Protein powder; ½ – 1 scoop; low glycemic, clean (these are a few that I like and can be purchased on my Fullscript Dispensary for 20% off!
  • Ora Organic So Lean & So Clean, Plant Protein
  • Garden of Life Raw Organic Protein
  • Ancient Nutrition Organic Plant Protein
• Ceylon cinnamon: 1 – 3 tsp (conventional cinnamon contains too many toxins)
• Vanilla: 1 – 2 tsp (organic is best)
• Veggies: ½ – 1 cups (optional: Avocado, Baby Kale, Baby Spinach etc)
• MCT Oil: 1 Tbls (optional good fat)
• Ice: Amount depends on individual thickness preference
