This smoothie combines two of my favorite nutrient dense superfoods, cacao and avocado. Add in some fresh fruit and a few other ingredients and you’ve got a delicious and highly nutritious superfood smoothie. I love it so much that I make this chocolate smoothie few times a week. It’s so healthy, I don’t feel an ounce of guilt for this sweet treat. And it never gets old.
Cacao is one of my all-time favorite superfoods. Who doesn’t love chocolate? It’s rich in magnesium, iron, chromium, vitamin C, and a good source of zinc, copper, and manganese. It also contains essential omega-6 fatty acids and the amino acid tryptophan, which your body uses to make serotonin, the feel good chemical. Spirulina is best known for being around 60-70% protein by dry weight, and contains all the essential amino acids. For vegans this may be the perfect protein source. It’s rich in iron and vitamin K and its dark pigments provide potent antioxidant properties. Its nutrient profile supports a healthy immune system, improved brain health, improved blood quality, and aids the body’s detoxification and cleansing efforts.
